Re: The best Mosin sporting rifle project in world history

I am looking for Finnish classic designs for the Mosin or military. I will look over this more.



If you're looking for an original M/39 stock including fittings I can probably help. The Tamarms gun show is coming up in about 1 months time, the Arma Aboa in April. These two are among the best to source Finnish Mosin stuff. A complete stock with all fittings goes for 75 +/- 25 euros (depending on condition and general luck). Up to 200 euros more for an original bayonet. There were over 50,000 M/39 made but only 10,000 bayos...

Question: Was this a SAKO sporter stock made for Mosin rifles?



Yes. Sako factory sporterized Mosins for a few years immediately post war in the calibers 5.6x53R, 6.3x53R, 7x53R, 7.62x53R, 8.2x53R and 9,3x53R. Sako factory ammo for all these were made with the 8.2 and 9.3 still available.

Sako had a couple of designs for civilian sporter stocks, Lancasters example is a late 1940ies model.
