This one has a lot going for it.
1941 Puolustuslaitos marked on the barrel
98% (plus) original blue (not refurbed) the muzzle is in the white and so is the rear sight.
matching barrel, bolt & floor plate
excellent-like new Sako marked war time M39 Straight stock
1894 Chatterault receiver ("antique")
Bore Like New

This thing is completely off the hook! That is the Marilyn Monroe of rifles! That much good looks in one place is rediculous. Rediculous I tell ya.

Re: M39, Sako, PL, straight stock
Two things you have to do to find one like this.
1) Have your money ready to go at anytime.
2) Take your time and spend a lot of time searching what is out there.
But if you want it right now, You have to pay the going price and take what is available right now.
I spent months searching for these rifles. There is another way, and that is to keep trading up. I suppose that works also, but seeing I have never sold a rifle I have ever owned (Too attached) That don't work for me!

Very, very nice. WOW!
MN#1 - Finnish M39 - 1941 - More when it arrives ...
Re: M39, Sako, PL, straight stock
My vote is yes, of course. Dolk is going to have to come out of that back room...or head back into it actually, and write up the text for these pieces. They truly need to be in the showcase!Rongoman wrote:Bump

Re: M39, Sako, PL, straight stock
This is not my "best" stripped M39 but, it is the only one I see as "harder to find" because it is PL marked also. That PL mark makes it interesting to me. The stripes, well that is a bonus for me.
Some time I will work on it maybe, but not a lot of "extra time".
I need someone to write for me!

Re: M39, Sako, PL, straight stock
More of a marbling than stripes? And the PL is more than just an interesting addition. It is a very long and unpronounceable word.
No words of wisdom come to mind at this time....

Re: M39, Sako, PL, straight stock
I've heard them refereed to as "Burled", but mostly as "Flamed". I don't think that is official though.

It sure is pretty wood, regardless of what it's called.

Super nice one Dolk Hey pacanis if it were a dog it could hang on my front porch and go hunt n with me anytime.
Re: M39, Sako, PL, straight stock
That is one fine M39! You have a good search technique, I find I "make my luck" by being continuesly on the search, and as you mention have the cash ready to go. One of my partners at work wants a Tula 91/30 as a representation for his WWII collection. Yet he is not willing to stop and take the troubles to ask at our local places, hence, I have mustered out 4 Tulas (3 are mine, 1 is my youngest sons) in just my first week of even trying, given the numbers of Mosins I have seen Tulas appear to be getting more scarce, but not impossible to locate. Finns are the same way, but add in the internet and most anything can be found, just costs a little more.
