Very Nice!

If my life depended on it and I had to shoot, maybe, if I didn't have anything else.

But I wouldn't shoot ordnance that looked like that, you have no idea if the primer or powder is good.

Well if nothing else, my astonishment at prices has started a cool discussion I learned a thing or two.

I am working on a couple below $500 bucks.

almost 900 for a real nice SAKO (not a Sk.Y) . Nice Tiger Sako correct stock. Very nice shape. Nice gun but again too much for me.

Drive over the state line to an airport, rent a car with out of state plates, then go to the show, wear a hat, or T shirt with " I love Texas" or something on it. Maybe even rent a motel room for the night a good distance from the show. Reminds me of Clinton era BATFE agents entrapping pe...

I think I am going to re-adjust my search for a Sk.Y, one just went for over a $1000.00 To much for my budget. There had to be something special or bidders were drunk. I got them in the last year $400 flame stock mismatched floorplate and $360 all matching stamped receiver number no dot matrix both...

To much for my budget.

Apparently he just went in the hospital with Heart Issues :(

I sent him a message at Facebook about a week ago, and was going to follow up. I found his homepage again and was about to re-message when I saw his status.

I think Ill just leave him be for a while.

Yep only thing I saw online and available was a copy at Amazon for $255, plus postage and tax

That's a nice looking rifle!

!941 Sako Finn M-39, no "D" on barrel?? What does that mean, is it not a D shank? Is that good or bad from a collect ability and/ or a shoot ability perspective. And thanks for all your patience, if all my questions start to annoy you, let me know. :) But unfortunately I haven't become add...

OK so I kind of have my sights set on one the the Sk.Y M-39's.

I was wondering what the various opinions are on fair market value?

What adds to it or detracts from.

I have found a few threads here and there but not anything current, so looking for some opinions.

Thanks!

From the picture, it looks a lot like the Parkerizing on my Garand. Hence the question to begin with

Photos would be interesting if you are able to grab any...

Hello!

Looking to get into the Mosin Game. Looking for an M-39. Thought I would show up here and get some wisdom

Did the Finns do any Parkerizing? I am looking at a weapon locally but it looks like parkerizing, not blueing. I got a feeling that was done after import but I was wondering.

Also Parkerized M=39 assuming the Finns did not do that would also affect the collect-ability, correct?

Thanks!
