Have not had shoot-off with grandson yet but couldn't resist trial fire at range. Went bang like it should with no problems with any ammo. However the last round in the magazine would not load. I imagine the spring may be getting a little weak. I was hoping someone may have disassembled one before and could give advice before I give it a try. Also my local gunshop thought a Savage magazine might fit. Any thoughts are appreciated.
Here is a pic of my P54. Has been a safe queen since I bought it. Have the palm rest too.
A rarity indeed, especially in that condition. And with the palm rest! Thanks for posting.Here is a pic of my P54. Has been a safe queen since I bought it. Have the palm rest too.
Looks good to me!I did get a chance to shoot it again last weekend. This time I used some Geco rifle "match".
"match" is a loose term, as I have shot some in my other rifles and it is not match, but more along the line of slightly higher grade plinking ammo.
But anyways, I was still happy with the result. And again, I am far from a expert marksman with open sights, so take that into account.
If I get a chance to try other ammo I will update.
Distance was 50 yards. Front rest rear bag.
Google translate says that means "vertical ear". I'm guessing this refers to the sight?"pystykorva" Mosins
Nice looking p54. Theese usually have pricing between 200-300€ here in Finland. Maybe 400€ if it is in exellent condion with scope. Most dealers have at least one in stock. Somehow they are in the same category as Baikal shotguns and "pystykorva" Mosins (every gun cabinet has one of those) but I rerely see anyone using P54 here.
You are right. Sight have vertical protectors. And those Baikal shotguns have nickname Balalaika, which is a russian instument.Google translate says that means "vertical ear". I'm guessing this refers to the sight?
Older centerfire sako sporter models are usually between 300-500€. Tikka models are 500-700€. New exported firearms like ruger, smith & wessons are almost double compared to what they are in American market. Like new ruger 10/22 goes for 500€.I have been talking to a Finnish gun dealer and it amazes me at the price difference on these rifles, the P46, and other Sako rifles in general. The prices I see on them over there, they are easily 2-3 times as much here in the states.
