Wanted: Sako TRG .308 magazine

[leeroy7031]

I confirm that it was a special order and took 6 months to arrive. I'm not sure why they have no plans to stock it over here, it's a superb compact rifle and great value, especially with the factory fitted 10 round mag floor plate, it's just a shame that It uses the TRG mags . I haven't taken it out to the range yet so I can't comment on it's performance.

Dave,

I'm looking at one of these in .308 hence why I said I may have one. I plan to drop mine into one of these from MDT http://mdttac.com/lss-chassis-for-tikka-t3.html You can then use standard AI mags and all the AR15 stocks and grips.

Watch this space.

Would £150 be tolerable?
Hopefully the price will come down as they become more popular.

Not a hope. I've been using TRG because RPA decided to go that way because even though their main competitors, AI, mags are almost the benchmark now, they wouldn't do it.

TRG mags used to be 80 quid. Sako got a Middle Eastern contract for the TRG, so the rifle doubled in price as did the mags. The last ones I was quoted for had a recommended price of £180!!

What's worse is, they're not that good. You'd be hard pushed to get 10 rounds in the thing and not a great deal of use causes the hole for the mag catch to open right up to the point it becomes unreliable because the mag no longer fits....

I would purposely avoid any rifle that uses these as the mag system.

150 quid + for a magazine

What an absolute load of nonsense!
