Sitting in airport and traveling for next 18 hours, plenty of time to think about collection, what I want to keep, acquire, sell, etc. decided to get the wife a new car this spring so going to raise some funds. Been debating this one a while but have decided to sell Sako L579 Deluxe in 22-250. Been in my family since the early 90s, I have only fired it during one range session about 10 years ago. No scope mounted on it currently. I have a set of Sako Opti-lock 30mm highs for it currently.
Rifle is in very good condition, not excellent. Metal is pretty much flawless, the stock has a little crazing in the clear around the pistol grip cap and fore-end. Buttpad is original but is showing some age. There is one nick in stock near cheek rest, my bumbling friend picked it up off my workbench a few years ago when I had rifles out of the safe to clean. I had the rings slid onto the dovetails but not tightened down, get snatched it and rear ring slid off as he swung around. Hit the stock with ring, pissed me off.
What is the ballpark for this specimen? Attached a few pics that I happen to have on my phone. Thanks
There is nothing like these made anymore. Fantastic workmanship.
