How Rifles Are Made | How It's Made (Sako & Tikka GUN PRODUCTION)

[@samhunt9380]

To think 58 years ago, this 17 year old kid purchased, with his total life savings to that point, a Sako Finnbear in .270 to continue his career as a government deer culler in the New Zealand Forest Service. This video humbled me and bought a tear to this old mans eye. Thank you for a wonderful tour and the subsequent video. I knew I had the best, I just didn't realise why, now I do.

[@ecleveland1]

I sighted a friend's Sako in for him after his scope mount was replaced. This was thirty years ago before all the CNC and computers really came into use. It is still the most accurate production rifle I have ever shot. It printed a perfect tiny three-shot clover with all the holes overlapping by one-third. It was a beautiful walnut stock with a highly polished blued steel rifle in 30-06.

[@DieselRamcharger]

cnc and computers were in heavy use 30 years ago. lmao. dude you realize we landed on the moon 50 years ago. right?

[@ecleveland1]

@@DieselRamcharger Yes I kinda remember that happening. That was a completely different kind of computer though. The gun manufacturing industry was not using the type of computers or programs we have today. Yes, they were using some basic X, Y, Z-axis computer-controlled machines but the industry still depended on analog computers back then.

[@DieselRamcharger]

@@ecleveland1 they werent basic. 1990 isnt that far back. Everything a modern CNC machine can do, we had machines that did it back then. The machines in the 90's were mostly NC. Which just means numeric control {Tape instead of silicone memory}. All NC/CNC machines just interpolate coordinates from the cartesian grid {XYZ} The only difference between machines of today and machines 30 years ago are 1} size of memory {cnc machines store everything in volatile memory, not on hard drives} 2} processor speed. how much code can be executed per second. older machines were slower so you had to write the code more compact. todays machines can process each line of code faster so the lines of code have become much more numerous in the program. This give you the chance to do some more creative things as the program can be much larger. IE deburring and engraving in the same cycle. PS i own a machine shop.

[@ecleveland1]

@@DieselRamcharger Yes, I remember still writing basic code back in the late 80s even when Windows was coming out but was really just a shell for dos. My main point in all this is the Gun industry is using more CNC particularly 5 axis machines today that they didn't have 30 or so years ago. We all get to benefit from the advances in technology in the shooting world.

[@DieselRamcharger]

@@ecleveland1 i dont mean C++. G Code. NC Machines have used G Code to program the coordinate plot since the 1950's. MIT developed gcode in 1958. Iwill tell you right now. I have 1980's machines and i have 2019 machines. They are all equally capable. The NC machines have had the tapes removed and are now Drip Fed from a PC over a serial connection. They are all CNC now. :)

I walked into sportsman's warehouse to buy a Browning xbolt and walked out with a tikka t3x super light in 3006. After talking to the guy that worked there he suggested the tikka over the Browning. I felt that action and knowing it was made by sako with their reputation, it was a no-brainer. So happy with my rifle!

Paul Simmons, 🇬🇧 I bought a brand new American Rifle years ago and the barrel was bent out of the box, you could not see it but a gunsmith found it. Buy a Sako or Tikka.

[@mobius-1503]

I compete PRS matches with my trusty 308 CTR. With a brake, good glass. Smooth action...I doubt il ever shoot anything else.

[@green_comet83]

Interesting video, shame the dude in the vest didn't let the Finnish guy speak more. There's no need to constantly interrupt him and sound like an infomercial.

[@karlsbergkarl2230]

Obviously he is either an importer, salesman or a sales rep for the company.

[@MegaWilleman]

So you are saying he did not let him Finish ?? :D :D :D

[@user-fd7tl4xg6y]

Thats exactly what I was thinking... "I wish he would shut tf up!" haha

[@jeffpowell6224]

Yeah, vest man definitely needs to keep quiet and let Mr. Finn talk more!

[@silvermediastudio]

The whole video was cringe. Pretty standard manufacturing facility, pretty standard firearms manufacturing facility. Yes they do it well, but there's nothing super unique going on.

[@islandmikes-sailingandtrad8473]

I purchased a Sako in 270 30 years ago. The gun needed little workup..just time at the range. Has always shot like on a string ...same today! Added a Tikka 300 win mag for long distance elk. Beautiful weapon out of the box! Deadly accurate. Doublely proud when I found out I'm of Finnish ancestry. Some of the greatest craftspeople on earth. And tough. Thank you for the tour..

[@Rangvald8909]

I’ll never sell any of my Tikkas. Every other rifle in my collection is liable to be traded or sold, but once you get your hands on a tikka… never let that thing go. Just my standard off-the-shelf tikka t3x shoots under half-moa with match ammo. It’s nuts.

[@vili1]

Do you know what Tikka means In english?

[@jeppemajlandgravesen6306]

You shoud try a Schultz & Larsen rifle, hand made danish quality

[@Rangvald8909]

@@vili1 I googled it just now, I guess it means dart 🎯

[@Rangvald8909]

@@jeppemajlandgravesen6306 I’ll keep it in mind if I’ve ever got a pile of cash sitting around!! My goals for shooting over the next 5 years is to get into shooting at something like 1000 yards. And I also want to have heirloom-quality rifles to pass on before I die.

[@vili1]

@@Rangvald8909 It means dart yes and also a Woodpecker you know the bird? 😀

[@thierrymarchal]

Great tour, very interesting. It's reassuring to see how its made since I'm hunting with a Tikka T3X. I enjoyed the explanations.

[@franciscusgomarus5086]

Simo Hayha the world's greatest sniper would have been proud to own a Sako/Tikka.

[@riippumatonlinja]

He actualy owned one, because SuojelusKuntain Ase- ja Konepaja SAKO literally means civil guard weapons and machining forge. And its worked his mosin nagant finnish upgraded version what he used whole winter war until hospitalized due exploding ammo to jaws.

[@mot0rhe4d40]

@@riippumatonlinja I am glad you mentioned this. The Finn's have a long history of accurate rifle manufacturing. I am glad this tradition lives on. Been very happy with my Tikka T3X Hunter. Cheers

[@gailpeterson3747]

This was a very informative video--it's great to see the human factor is still very important to the company and that their goals of end user satisfaction have not diminished over the years.

[@canadaintheroughtv]

Thanks for watching!

[@tileman108]

how clean and quiet that plant is

[@adame270]

You can't buy a better gun for the price. Smooth actions, great trigger, accurate barrels. I love them.

[@canadaintheroughtv]

Agreed!

[@craigkaschan4822]

Finns really are wonderful people.

[@toolmakerbest1584]

I am only half Finnish, but I 100% agree! 👍

[@steveottavaino3804]

Excellent tour, those hog outs from forgings is impressive and helps substantiate the lofty retail price. The Manufacturing Engineer (presumedly) giving the shop tour has excellent taste in watches, an IWC Mark VXIII on a bracelet. Superlative. Thanks for sharing, well done!!! Ciao.

[@snuffle2269]

Now if Simo Hayha had one of these rifles... They are worth every penny for this quality.

Late 60’s, I bought a Sako, 22-250. I didn’t know anything about Sako at the time, only it was the most beautiful rifle I had seen. Not only beautiful, but the ground hogs didn’t like it.

[@lewiefrazier1041]

Coyotes don't like a 22-250 either

[@rebelbaron7003]

Neither do feral cats.

[@edwardroland5301]

Love the Sako and Tikka rifles.

[@canadaintheroughtv]

We do too!

[@borisj4054]

Well, I have seen the inside of Savage and how they make rifles and now Sako. A world of difference. Was close to buying another Remington 700 but now think I will spend an extra Grand and get a Sako 85.

Very interesting. Excellent precision and workmanship. Although I'm disappointed that we didn't see the stocks being made.

[@davestickler392]

I own a Sako 300 win mag and it is the finest gun I own and I have lots it’s of guns. Sako is top notch for quality.

[@billkunert7281]

When I was in the military back in the 1960's I bought a Sako Finnbear in 270 Win. for $125 from our rod & gun club. It was an absolutely beautiful fire arm, the nicest I ever owned. Really wish I hadn't sold it
