Hi,
My name is Paul Eanes...from Libby, Montana. I'm trying to identify my new condition never fired Sako .270 Finnbear date of manufacture and actual length of barrel. As listed in the title above...it is a Sako Finnbear model L61R serial # AV 605240 which I believe was produced between 1885 & 1989....but not sure. Can anyone help with the info I need...barrel length and actual year of manufacture? Thanks for any possible assistance rendered.
Paul

I can't directly help but if you visit

http://groups.msn.com/SakoCollectors...seetopics.msnw

and go to either the "general" forum or the "does anyone know" forum, I think someone can help with year of manufacture.
