Manufactured circa the early 1970s and imported by Garcia, as marked on the underside of barrel. Tapered blued round barrel with iron sights removed, the holes filled in with filler screws. Receiver mounted with a gloss finished Leupold VARI-X III 2.5-8x scope. 1-piece checkered Monte Carlo stock with ribbed "SAKO" butt plate. Complete with basket weave pattern tooled leather sling. CONDITION: Very good. Rifle retains the vast majority of its factory blue with light high edge wear. Stock has some finish crackling, as is often seen on old Sako rifles, as well as scattered dings but no major sign of distress. Bore is very good with well defined rifling throughout. Fine mechanics. Good optics. An increasingly collectible and difficult to find vintage Sako.
