Does anyone knows who can export those rifles to Germany? They are not available here, I saw them in UK and the USA. Some where else? It is almost impossible to get such a rifle from overseas. How about UK or other country?

Thanks

Leupoldo,

The entire Tikka line is being handled in The Fatherland by Berreta Germany.

Just returned from the German National Hunting Shooting Championships where Tikka's wares (along with Sako & Berretta) were on display in the Beretta pavillion; rifles, Hunting, Target & Varmint in both wood & synthetic plus the Left Hand range were all; according to the vendors, available.

Gerry, in Germany Tikka is distributed by Manfred Alberts, and he does not offers the T3 Lite in stainless steel finish with the Synthetic Stock.

Sorry.....

Gee, just color me Stupid. From my perspective I thought that's what local Distributors were for - to obtain product(s) for Customers, even if they are one-ofs.

Wouldn't be the first time; there's a long list of German Distributors who have (and continue to) fail to meet the needs of their (potential) Customers.

I've just ordered one for a friend from Gunrunner in stainless laminate and there is a bit of a wait, (I think 8-10 weeks IIRC) for any of the stainless range.

Rick at Gunrunner can get the gun and expert to you should you wish. Drop him an e-mail and I'm sure it will get sorted if it is possible. He is shooting for the next couple of days but will probably pop into the office to check mails most days.

There is also a Stainless laminate Sako 85 in 260Rem available now that was a cancelled order. I'm not sure what the price is on that though.

Thank you FB, just sent them both a mail asking.

Try hollowfarmsg@aol.com excellent shop and has a dealers exportlicence and deals with Germany a lot so transport would not be an issue

Hello, just got the answer from Rick: he can export, but the rifle is a special order and will take about 3 months to deliver. I cannot wait that much. I will give holowfarms a try.

Thanks

Hi ,

What calibre are you looking for?

Rgds,
FB

Her in Iceland you can buy them in most gunstores. the price is 977€ incluting vat.
the vat is 24,5%

In the states they are $500ish. Sorry to hear that something made in Europe cost twice as much in Europe.

Hello Fallow Buck, I'm looking for a T3 Lite, Stainless, Synthetic Stock, Caliber 270WSM.
Yes, D99 it is amazing. Me either dont understand why they get so cheap when they are shipped over the ocean. Probably they get some taxes back for the export??? Does anybody knows more about it?
Just got an answer from a guy in Colorado who still can export the rifles.


Thanks

The price of a Tikka T3 Lite, in Italy and France is about 1180€ and the stainless is about 1350€. That means 1700$ and 1944$. I had a good deal on mine, 3 years ago and I paid it 960€; it's the blued version cal. 270 WSM. Here we pay the lack of commercial competition and the manufacturers try to make us pay their low overseas prices.
