Sako L579 parts interchangability?
I have a Sako standard 243 cal that needs bottom metal (floor plate/trigger guard, follower & spring, cartridge box, action screws).
I am having a very hard time locating these, & am wondering if the Sako actions furnished to Browning, Ithaca, H&R, Marlin, Montgomery Wards were L579 & could I use these parts (if I find them)? If anybody has any of these parts, please respond, & if you know about interchangability of the "other" manufacturers parts, please educate me. Any help will be very appreciated.
Thanks Samie

Here's a link to a new set of Trigger Guard screws from Forster Products that sell for $5.20 a set of two......and these will fit the L-579 in .243. However, shipping might be as much or more than the screws....

Most of the Sakos made for those companies will have the action marked with the Sako numbers....L-57 or L-579, L461, etc. Just look for parts from an L-579 and check fit on your gun, (if possible).
Henry Ford stated: "There is no one more useless than a Convict, except perhaps, those that guard him." This was his reason NOT to hire either one!0 -
