• Hey All! Lately there has been more and more scammers on the forum board. They register and replies to members requests for guns and/or parts or other things. The reply contains a gmail or hotmail address or similar ”anonymous” email addresses which they want you to reply to. DO NOT ANSWER ANY STRANGE MESSAGES! They often state something like this: ”Hello! Saw your post about purchasing a stock for a Safari. KnuckleheadBob has one. Email him at: [email protected]” If you receive any strange messages: Check the status of whoever message you. If they have no posts and signed up the same day or very recently, stay away. Same goes for other members they might refer to. Check them too and if they are long standing members, PM them and ask if the message is legit. Most likely it’s not. Then use the report function in each message or post so I can kick them out! Beware of anything that might seem fishy! And again, for all of you who registered your personal name as username, please contact me so I can change it to a more anonymous username. You’d be surprised of how much one can find out about a person from just a username on a forum such ad our! All the best! And be safe! Jim

Who can help to know the age of my Sako 75

Sako Collectors Club Discussion Forum

Hello All,

Last year 2010 i bought my Sako 75 varmint deluxe in caliber 30-06Sprfd SN:43.......and because i am very pleased with it, i bought recently an other Sako 75 varmint deluxe in caliber 30-06Sprfd. SN:27...... Because they are used rifles i don't know the real age of the rifles.

I would like to find out how old they are. Hoping that someone here can help me to find out the age.

Thanks in forward,

Jakob-Sako30-06

The Model 75 was introduced in the 1990's & was produced for a few years until it was replaced with the current Model 85. Comparing your serial number with the Sako records if possible could give you an estimated year of manufacture. They are such a recent model that the date they were made is of little consequence as most Sako collectors consider them shooters or user rifles & don't generally assign any extra collector value to them like they do the older L series actions. They are, however, a very nice rifle that will hold value over time. A Varmint Deluxe model in 30-06 may be fairly uncommon, as I have never seen one here in the US. As my focus is on the older Sakos, my knowledge of the 75 is limited. Hopefully others more versed in the 75 will offer further insight.
