What's Included
- Sako M/39 7.62x54R bolt-action rifle
Built by Sako in Finland in 1944, this M/39 is chambered in 7.62x54R and follows the Mosin-Nagant system with dual-opposed locking lugs. It uses a non-detachable internal box magazine with a 5+1 capacity and has a 27 in barrel. The receiver is the desirable hex (octagonal) profile, and the bolt has a straight handle with a knurled rear cocking piece.
The hardwood stock is full-length and configured with a pistol-grip wrist and a right-side finger groove. A recoil crossbolt reinforces the action area. Sling accommodations are the inletted butt sling slot with a steel crossbar, a belly rear sling swivel, and a left-side front sling swivel on the barrel band. Length of pull measures 13.25 in.
Sights are iron: a front post with protective ears hood and a Finnish tangent-leaf rear sight with elevation graduations and a fine-toothed slider ramp. This sighting setup is characteristic of the Finnish M/39 pattern and provides precise, repeatable adjustments.
Markings include the boxed SA property mark and the Sako gear-wheel logo. An import mark is present near the muzzle reading "Finland 7.62x54R ...". Country of origin is Finland.
