Classic 2nd shipment “Sako Luck of the Draw”

[fn111557]

I decided to jump on the band wagon and pick up a Finnish M39 from the Classic flood! The only thing I wanted was a usable gun of Sako manufacture. After hearing some of the stories (good & bad) from the first shipment, and seeing Classic was making an effort to right their wrongs, I pulled the trigger (pun intended).
After making sure my C&R was on file, I camped on their website as the countdown clock ticked away. I selected the order for my regular Sako, and added in the comments “I prefer a NICE dark wartime stock”.
I am very happy with what I received. Does it have surface rust and minor pitting on the metal, yes! Is it a NICE dark wartime stock, yes! Does it have some dings and dents in the wood, yes! Are there any cracks or splits in the wood, no! Is there anything that looks to be mechanically wrong, no! I am by NO MEANS an expert, but it can be considered good to me, and that is what counts. And as an EXTRA BONUS, all the numbers; barrel, bolt, and floor plate match!

Nice M-39. Took a look but based on some feedback from the first release kept my hand of the trigger. Oh well.
