ATA Turqua Rilfes On Sale!

No.

A Stevens Model 334 is approximately $600.00.

A Turqua deluxe Monte-Carlo walnut is $950.00-$1000.00.

A black synthetic Tikka with a blued barrel and receiver is $1100.00 or more in some locations.

A deluxe Tikka that would match a deluxe Turqua is $1500.00 or more.

Prices can very from province to province and sometimes gun shops have blow-out or sale prices on firearms.

In saying this, my point is, a Tikka is okay but is more money than the equivalent Turqua, that in my opinion only is a much better built rifle.

There are a lot of Tikka fans out there and that's okay.

Turqua is relatively new to Canada. But It's going to take the gun market with a storm. They just are very nice guns.

I believe the stephens rifles have only 20" and 22" barrels and 1 magazine, while the Turqua has 2 magazines and barrels up to 24 inches.
Cabelas, Bass pro sells the stephen for $768.39 tax incl.
While the Turqua sells at different dealers for $1050.89 tax incl.,
a difference of $282.50

This guy got one with the barreled action loose in the stock. Turns out the receiver threads were messed up from the factory and needed to be retapped.

And if one looks hard enough on the internet, you can find warranty concerns or negative comments on everything.

It's how the issue is handled by the warranty people in Edmonton at NAHS counts.
 
I haven't seen one in person but may think by advertiser, they look a kinda "elegant and functional" to me anyways.
 
The action and trigger are somewhat different. The action on the deluxe model Turqua rifles are polished and are as smooth as a Tikka. The Stevens 334 are a matte dull surface and are not as smooth.

The trigger is slightly better in the Deluxe models over the Stevens models.

The action and trigger is absolutely as smooth, as is the action compared to a Tikka.

The rifle sights are metal with a fiber optic front sight, very good quality indeed.

I sell both the Stevens Turqua and the deluxe Turqua models. I also carry Tikka rifles.

Been selling guns for over 45 years my friend. We all will have different opinions though.

The bottom line is a Turqua is as very good as a Tikka, but with way less money for a similar model.
I just received a new Stevens 334 .243 polymer and cleaning the sticky packing grease film off the bolt and action I applied a thin coat of silicone to bearing surfaces including the sear and now it's slicker than snot. The two stage trigger smoothed out too. I particularly like the heavier barrel. Bit peeved about only getting one 3 rnd mag but at $465 plus tax I really can't complain. I won't state the vendor here out of respect for the business member's forum. If anyone gets wind of extra 5 rounders for sale please drop me a line!
 
I bought one on the first shipment to Canada. Before the Stevens came out, before savage announced them actually. I got mine in 308, very nice rifle, in all aspects. Extremely accurate as well. I only paid $450 for mine though.
