I watched the guy hand carve one of these Anniversary models at his desk when I was in Finland in '83 on a plant tour and moose hunt. Trying to remember how many were allocated to be built.... umm only 100 as I recall. I'll try and dig out the pics ...took lots of pics on that trip, but with all the problems we are having in getting pics posted but dunno if I make that happen. Ron

The only thing I didn’t like on the anniversary model was the grip cap. Otherwise stunning figure on that rifle!

She’s a beauty Hanco! The more I look at the oak leaves, the more I like them…considering my old eyes thought they were blemishes or some other weird discoloring at first!!!! 🙈 Very nice rifle sir! Congrats!

Very nice. Mine was just finished and should be here in a couple days.
