Can anyone help me find a replacement mannlicher forend tip for a Sako AV 375 H&H
Friend lost one.
Thanks

Still Looking

Good luck with that. Maybe you can find a universal nose cap and try to fit it. Here is one at Brownells:

Try SAKO or Beretta the importer.

I forgot what they look like straight or schnabel? The universal is pretty adaptable by bending and grinding as needed as long as the diameter is close. If it is like the older SAKO mannlichers the fore end is a separate piece held together at the barrel band. If this is the case a new one could be made and fitted with any cap or wood/horn cap worst case. I made one by soldering brass pipe together fairly easily same could be done in mild steel.

Biesen (retired) or Dressel had them and many smiths could make one but would not be inexpensive. There were other sources such as LaBounty but can't find a current listing.

Thanks guys, I'll take a look at these options
