Tikka T3 Questions

[BerettaNut92]

1. Do any Tikka T3s have backup iron sights?

2. Can the rail fit Picatinny type of dinguses (dingii?) like the Eotech or Aimpoint?

3. Do they come in shorter barrel lengths than 22"

Get a Glock.

There's an article on the T3 in the Aug. G&A, showed some different models etc.

Thanks 50, I'll hit up the bookstore tomorrow.

Tikka's website has the different models: http://www.tikka.fi/rifles.php

If you want irons you probably need to look at the Battue.

On the T3 Lite, they have a rail on it. I know it takes a weaver base, or it can take rings directly on the rail. Re Picatinny, I don't know.

The Battue's barrel is under 20"

you could buy a section of picatinny rail and install it yourself on the rifle.

Go to http://www.tikka.fi/

There's one T3 model with picatinny rail: http://www.tikka.fi/pdf/specs/Tactical.pdf

For mounting optics the optilock rings work best with Sako/Tikka rifles

I don't think any T3 comes with iron sights.
Only the T3 Tactical (.223 or .308) comes in a shorter (20") barrel.

The Tactical is a heavy barrel, no?
