Finnish SA rig

Just a brag. Picked this up a couple weeks ago, this is why I am looking for Finn marked tool and mags. Interesting to note that it has an East German rear toggle piece.

Neat pistol and very interesting rig.
Thank you for bragging.

Very nice!

Does the barrel have the early circle/triangle/T or the later triangle/T???

The ATF specifically exempts this variation from the SBR reg???

Circle-triangle-T Tikka barrel.

Finnish SA-mark pistol with Finnish SA-marked stock exempted, see http://luger.gunboards.com/showthrea...ish+atf+letter

Could you please post a pic of the Circle-T on your most-excellent SA Luger whenever you have time???

Edit: Thanks too for the link to Nap's letter. I do have a 'mutt' Luger with a Tikkakoski barrel which I may someday look for a stock+holster for...

Sorry, I didn't look closely, circle-triangle-T.

Unless I am mistaken, that is a 120mm barrel...Is it 7.65 or 9mm???

Dwight Gruber · 09-21-2015, 11:55 PM

12cm barrel, 7,65mm

That is a handsome rig. I can easily see why one would want/need to brag a bit about it!! Thanx for posting the photos.
