Mystifying lineage of our new Tikka. Got history?
« on: September 21, 2007, 05:40:15 AM »
It just occurred to me that our new Tikka T3 has more branding on its box than the jumpsuit of a top seeded NASCAR hotfoot. Beretta? Sako? Tikka?

What's up with that? What are the relationships between those companies? Or are they the same company?

Beretta owns Sako, and Sako in turn owns Tikka!

It's a great gun, and virtually everyone can attest to same.  That's the most important.
