Does anyone know who carries Sako in Houston? I would like to get a Sako 243.

What model/configuration, etc?

LSRR, I am also in the market for pre-owned older model Sakos that are in good shape....in case you come across them. no particular caliber.

I have an AII Deluxe in .243. Youre going to love the fit and finish.

I am supposed to have a Sako AV Deluxe in .300 WM delivered this afternoon. Stock made of European walnut, was professionally glass bedded and according to the owner, used very little. Stay tuned.

I have a 243 Forrester L579 "pre garcia"

I think it was made anywhere from 1960-65

Anyone know about what they are worth these days?

Love me some Sako. 2 Finnbears. 25-06, 270.

Do want: Vixen .222 Rem

Not sure what they're worth, but I'll give you $175 bucks for it...

:-)

excellant feedback. i will get back to yall ASAP. i like the idea of supplimenting a 243 for texas whitetail with a 300 for bigger game. looking at Sako because i think they are great guns to hand down to my boys.

Need an extra son?

Nice guns. Sako 25-06 deluxe, .244 L579, .264 L61R and 7MM L61R in my safe.

There were a couple of Sako .243's for sale on the Houston board a few months ago. May still be available.

Collector's on Richmond usually has a few.

This thread has rekindled my desire to add a 222Rem Vixen to the stable....

This is likely going to cause a lack of female companionship around the house for a while.

Thanks again TexAgs.

I know those are Sako, but with the forearm, they look a lot like my dad's old Parker Hale 30-06.

I'd love to find one of the PH's buy it and give it to my Dad. He sent his off for some work when I was a kid and the company "lost it". They replaced it with another gun, but a PH was a rarety even back then.
