  • Sako Export 2013.Pdf
    2013 Sako history begins when the company was founded in the early 1920´s. Sako has come a long way from nearly total hand manufacturing to todays computer aided R&D and CNC manufacturing. Nevertheless we have not forgotten the value of traditional gunsmithing. That’s why we still do some critical areas by hand. A good example of this is our inspection of each barrel visually and then shooting it manually for proof and accuracy. All our rifles comply with CIP and SAAMI requirements. At the turn of the millenium, Sako became an honored member of the Beretta Group. Sako gained access to new and refined production methods, which in turn enabled us to intensify our product development. The Sako model 85 was developed, based on the vast experience gained from the success of its predecessors. Our Sako 85 rifles have the worlds most advanced turnbolt action in 6 different action sizes. For the hunter this means tailor made and specific purpose rifles in each selected caliber. Further, the model A7 was developed to give hunters access to a medium priced Sako rifle. Not sacrificing first class workmanship or accuracy, but by optimizing the available action sizes and parts. We also manufacture the Sako Quad series, the world´s first rimfire bolt-action rifle with interchangeable barrels. This is the all-in-one rimfire package, for the serious rimmfire enthusiast. Sako also produces the well-known Tikka T3 rifle series. Aimed at the entry-level hunter, but loaded with the expected Sako quality and performance, its model range is so extensive that it is presented in its own catalogue.
