[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 336321, member: 4191"] Although the Tikka recoil lug arrangement seems to produce good shooting rifles, I wonder if there isn't a significant liability issue for Beretta/Sako/Tikka should someone forget to install the lug? As appears to be the case with MontanaRifleman's Sako... I think he's sent that back to the factory a time or two. With the majority of other rifles the lug is affixed to the barrelled action and if the barrelled action is in the stock, you know there's a functional recoil lug buried under there. With these non-attached recoil lugs, the only way to know for sure is to take the barrelled action out of the stock, or shoot it until the barrelled action shoots loose and falls out of the stock. :rolleyes: [/QUOTE]
