Tikka custom combination possible?

Post by d3driver » 15 Jun 2017, 9:20 am

Hi there, does anyone know if it's possible to order a custom combination from Tikka? For instance I would like the action and barrel from the Hunter Stainless Fluted, the stock from the Laminated Stainless, a set trigger and a muzzle thread. This combination doesn't exist on their website... I'd be happy to wait, but would like to know if it's possible.

Sako Finnfire Hunter .22, Leupold Vari-X II 3-9x40 (my old .22 bought back)

Only way to find out is to email them.

Email Tikka directly and if they reply positive, then email the importer for the order and tell them the local gun shop you want it sent to then get your LGS to confirm the order.
The reason I suggest going to the manufacturer first is because you will likely find the LGS and importer will just say no to save hassle. In this case you can forward them your positive response from Tikka and are not just relying on their say so.

Thanks Gwion, I can't find any email or twitter details for Sako, but have FB messaged TIkka on their account. Will update if I get a reply etc.

Thanks mate. I've forgotten how to do snail mail, and my Telstra plan doesn't cover Finland for free calls.... I'll see if they reply on FB, thanks again

Ask your store to do a swap in house.

That'd be way easier.

Hey d3driver,

My Tikka is a Fluted Hunter action/barrel in a Forest stock.

I bought it at Abelas in Thornbury a few years ago who happily did the swap in store.

The swap turned their "T3 Forest" into a standard "T3 Hunter" so nothing lost on the stores end.

Doesn't solve the trigger / muzzle bit for you but could cover half the setup you want.
