From other posts it's apparent that Canada has some exceptional collector's pieces- I'm looking forward to hearing about the many more fine rifles out there.

Another for the record- let keep this one on top so it will actually get stickied!

Manufacturer: Sako for SK.Y contract
Model: M39
Serial Number: 50946*
Country of barrel manufacture: Finland
Barrel Manufacture Date: 1944
Any Unique Barrel markings or features: Sk.Y stamped, no SA stamp
Receiver Date of Manufacture: 1896
Capture Markings: none
Additional Markings:
Accessories: Sk.Y stamped sling
Closing Notes: Very 'experienced'. Spliced, pinned and very extensively arsenal repaired stock- I'd bet it was the bane of someone's existence for a week at the armory. Lots of character.
 
Yep, it's a late production rifle- 1944. Production was from '42 to '44. The highest serial number in post war records appears to the 509667, but the run was of 10,500 rifles, which leaves quite a few to be accounted for.

Roger on the data point there... standby-
