[bucnball]

Classic sent me an e-mail informing me that they have some more M 39's for sale but not @ a nice price.. Both varieties though . ( Hope i don't merit a Warning for posting this. )

Notifying the community of deals or availability of something hard to find is never a bad thing unless you're promoting your own business w/o being a TGO Vendor.

Here is your warning No_one will be a long shortly to buy them all up so get one before he gets off work. hahaha

[monkeylizard]

Yeah....always be sure to order one for yourself if you want it BEFORE sharing it with TGO.  :)

Actually the price is somewhat less than what these were selling for when Pat Burns was doling them out a few at a time, and she was selling them at a steady pace ...

Not ALL of them, got to fill some other niches first ...

Pat's prices were all over the board but you knew exactly what you were getting.

They have increased the price significantly and their service is still poor.

I see they did up the price on the SAKO's by $20, not surprising considering how fast the earlier offerings sold out.  As for Classic's service, my (limited) experiences have all been good.

I'm glad you posted this.  I thought they went up by $50.  The Sako's were gone by the time I placed an order last time they had them.

 

I retract my strongly negative comments.  Their customer service definitely has room for improvement. Though they have made efforts to improve, which I saw yesterday.

It's always been kind of interesting that the SAKO's are more highly valued than the VKT's, even though SAKO made twice the number of M39's as VKT ...

[Pete123]

Yeah, it must be that Sako name.

Kind of like the obsession with Tula's in Mosins, prior to the war years Tula always made more rifles than Izhevsk ...

Are you a big fan of vintage military guns?  If so, what are your favorites?

 

I would say anything from WWI or WWII, especially from the US and Russia followed by Finland and Germany.  1903 Springfield, M1 Garand, Mosin's, K98.  I also like the SKS guns, though I'm not sure they saw service in WWII.

doubt this time around will be any better than their last P.R. disaster

My interests are fairly limited, and my knowledge even more so.  Most of my very meager collection are Mosin variants.

It reportedly saw some limited action at the very end of the war in field trials on the front lines. It wasn't put into mass production until it was adopted by the Red Army in 1949.
