Nov 12, 2010 Contact the Tikka Recall Center at(NNN) NNN-NNNNand give them your serial number. They can tell you if your rifle is one of those being recalled. From what I understand, I think your gun might be outside the recalled serial number range, BUT please check with Tikka to be on the safe side.
The Finnish Mosin Nagant Rifle-CarbineProduction Information And NotesBrent SnodgrassIn the chart below one will be able to quickly find information on the Finnish manufacture of the Mosin Nagant rifle and carbine. The production numbers on the chart come from a number of sources, these include official Finnish records as found in the works of Markku Palokangas, other outlets in Finland, data collecting with various researchers in the USA and Finland, as well as research information on serial number ranges.
In some cases the exact production numbers are known but there are cases when the exact numbers are a bit of a mystery and one has to apply logic to set a total. As such while the numbers below can be used a guide one also has to view these numbers with a bit of leeway.It is suggested that if you want more detailed information read the various articles on Mosin Nagant Dot Net, as you will not find more detailed information anywhere in the English language.
Also please see Sotilaskasiaseet Suomessa 1918-1991 Volumes 1-3 by Markku Palokangas: Vammalan Kirijapaino Oy. Thanks Brent. SAKO:60,000 ForArmy Contract10,500 ForSKY ContractVKT:30,300Note - Some VKT M39's were done postwar by making use of VKT M91 barrels so the end total of M39's is higher. The number above is from the first production.B:Production totals are not known as these rifles were made from cutting down M91 blanks from Belgium.

To those who have donated time and information to this thread, I am extremely grateful. There have been some interesting trends that have developed over the past couple of years. None of this would have been evident without this thread and without the submissions from its members and other boards.Due to the move from the old old forum and the old new forum, we have lost information that has been submitted by it's members. With this post, I am trying to give a summation of what has been collected as of yet. I have tried to give a statistical idea of the features that will be found on these rifles. I have tried to break it down to the best of my ability.
If you can't tell already, I am trying. Some things just don't come out in the wash without the big picture. And with the big picture, comes my whole database. Unfortunately, I cannot and at this time don't wish to, post my whole database.
Below is a list of members who should receive credit for submitting their information on the previous two boards.

To all who have these rifles please be advised of the recall on T3 Stainless rifles with serial numbers starting with 419140 and going to 461951.I was about to buy a Tikka with the serial number 435081 and the Stoeger rep told me my rifle was fine and safe to shoot.Although he would not give me any guarantee especially when the serial number fell within the list he provided. Hows that for PR work on the buying public ? The Sako rifles are affected too as they use the same barrel manufacturer. If you have one of the rifles with those serial numbers you are urged to call Beretta USA at 1 800 636-3420. In Canada call Stoeger they are the Canadian importers for Tikka and Sako rifles at 1800 263 1945. The rifles in question have barrels made from sub standard steel and are subject to rupture.If you call don't let the sales rep tell you the rifles are fine, they are walking the company line on this one.Stoeger Canada said they are sending letters to all who bought these rifles.What about if the rifle has been sold a few times?Look up the story about the Sako that blew up in Victoria BC , Canada and you will see that it was one of these rifles in question.Of course they made it out to be the shooters fault by saying he overloaded the rifle but in reality he was using factory ammo that resulted in the blown up rifle.

American man injured when Sako rifle explodes

'The target was 200 yards away when I pulled the trigger. The gun let out a powerful explosive sound that I had never heard before, and it broke up in my hands', he explains. He was rushed to hospital with four broken bones in his hand. He was in surgery for four hours.
After the incident, Sako ordered a recall of its series of 2,700 weapons.
Sako CEO Henry Paasikivi says that a total of six guns are known to have malfunctioned in the same way - one of them in Finland. In one case, a Swedish boy lost the tip of his thumb.
The barrels would break up lengthwise into several fragments, and in some cases, other parts of the gun also broke. The problem was attributed to a weakness in the stainless steel used in the manufacture. Guns of the series in question were sold to several countries, from the United States to New Zealand, before the defect was noticed.
All buyers have been notified, and most of the guns have been returned to the factory for repairs or replacement, except for a few in the United States.
The faulty rifles were manufactured at the company's factory in Riihimäki last year. They include Sako and Tikka models.
When the problems arose, Sako immediately discontinued production and deliveries of the models, and began to recall them from retailers, and contacted individual buyers.
However, the company did not make any public statements at the time. 'We did not consider that necessary, because we were able to reach all owners of the weapons in other ways', he said.
'We have got all of the guns back, except in the United States, and 90 percent of the weapons we sold there have been located. All consumers have been contacted a long time ago.'
Paasikivi says that the weapons will be repaired, if necessary, and sent back to the owners.
