clip for ithica lsa 65

[Hamburger Flats]

i am looking for a clip for an ithica lsa 65 in 270. It is a Finnish rifle and I wonder if any Tikka clips would fit?

your rifle IS a Tikka,...an M-65....looking for a Tikka M-65 mag might help turn one up quicker.

You might try Elwood Epps....they can usually find stuff like that.

not sure about importing a mag from the US, but you can check out these sites.

no luck so far

Thanks for the tips but so far the cupboard is bare. I just missed a M65 clip. Thanks for that tip Rembo. Is there any value in trying to contact Tikka/Sako in Finland?

Scarce parts

I know the old Tikkas were more popular in Australia & NZ than here. Try doing a search for a source there.

Sometimes these things are rare and sell for a premium price.

I doubt if Sako would be of any help. Your gun is a real Tikkakoski built one,from before the days when Sako owned them.

found one!

Managed to locate a clip for an M65 at a gun shop in Regina. I also located one odd ball clip for an M65 at a Saskatoon gunsmith if anyone is looking for one in .308. This is an odd ball because the M65s were usually long action cartridges. I didn't see the clip but they told me the clip had a block in it to allow the shorter action cartridges. If anyone is looking for this call 306 244 2023.

well..not really...I had a Tikka M65 Deluxe in the box and it had the Sako logo on the end of the box.
