Description:

Equipped with a brass beaded blade front sight and an adjustable small peep sight secured to the rear receiver rib, this Sako has been extensively decorated. The barrel features a round profile on the rear half and octagon out front, a ventilated and tapered matte rib, intertwined gold wire accents at the muzzle, gold double line borders at the breech, and scroll and punch dot engraving at the chamber. The scrollwork continues on the frame, trigger guard and floor plate, with gold accents on the bolt knob, gold borders around the bolt catch, floor plate and trigger guard, and the following inlaid and sculpted animal heads, a bear on the left side of the chamber, a moose on the right, a smaller bear on the right below the rear sight, and an elk on the floor plate. The trigger guard is marked "EVANS" in an area concealed by the floor plate. The pistol grip stock is fancy claro walnut hardwood with a dark hardwood forearm tip, checkered grip cap, fleur-de-lis accented checkering panels, a right handed shadow-line cheekpiece and a checkered steel buttplate.

Rating Definition:

Very good as custom with 95% plus blue finish showing a plum tone to the receiver, minor spotting on the bolt and some minor handling marks overall. The stock is very good with some light handling marks, sharp checkering and attractive grain. Mechanically very good.
