    Classic 2nd shipment “Sako Luck of the Draw”

    I decided to jump on the band wagon and pick up a Finnishicon 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!

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

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