    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.
