Thread: Walnut and blued steel,

Picked up this today Sako Finnfire P94S .22.

Described as mint, I'd have to say it is with no flaws I dont think it's ever been removed from its stock - I'm certainly happy.


The previous owner had been given it by his father as a 12 year old boy and had done the odd bit of bit of plinking.
My kids are at an age now where they are keen on looking for pests, one day it will be theirs.
The bluing is nice, even high use areas like the bolt handle.
I havent shot it yet, it came with a Weaver 2.5 - 7 x 36 that will be fine for now but will likely look for somthing a bit nicer.






He even produced a suppressor for it.
Once I saw the original box and instructions I was happy that this was a clean little rifle.

If that is a Long action Win 70, with a short magazine... you have one of the slickest and fastest rifles ever made in 222/223.
Long action, short magazine Win 70s where heavily used in competition because of that. Short and super fast bolt manipulation and nearly impossible to bind up.

Bomb proof trigger is major plus.

better than the basic lightweight M70 that came out the same time. Featherweight style stock is usually darker and looks far less agricultural.
Got a Lightweight 70 243 albut identical to the one @dannyb had. always liked the featherweight stock better
