Tikka T3x Tac A1

About the Tikka

Tikkakoski was at first a metal workshop established in 1893 in Jyväskylä, Finland, which later, at the end of World War I in 1918 evolved into a factory that produced gun components. One of the most important guns of Tikka in the 20th century is most definitely Suomi KP/-31, which is regarded as one of the most successful submachine guns of World War II.

Tikkakoski and Sako cooperated on a prototype rifle series in 1981 and soon after that, Tikkakoski was acquired by Sako. By the end of the decade, the production of Tikka rifles has already shifted from Jyväskylä to Sako headquarters in Riihimäki. Tikka still holds on to their traditional gunsmith craftsmanship, visually inspecting every rifle barrel and then manually testing the rifle with test shots. In 2009 Beretta group took over Sako, which got Sako and Tikka access to the most advanced production methods.

Tikka T3x Tac A1 Rifle Review

Tikka T3x Tac A1 is a special version of Tikka T3x rifle series, which is adapted for military use, compared to the other T3x rifles, which are usually considered as hunting line of rifles. It has interchangeable pistol grips, that allow the user to adjust the angle of the grip, although these grips are sold separately. Even though the rifle has a detachable magazine that can store 10 cartridges, Tikka widened the angular ejection port for the sake of simplification of inserting one cartridge at a time. The rifle barrel is surrounded with a tube, which has M-LOK holes all around the tube. On top, it has a 0 MOA Picatinny rail over the whole length of the tube for rifle scope mounting purpose.

This rifle is chambered for:

  • .223 Rem
  • .260 Rem
  • .308 Win
  • 6.5 Creedmoor

Our recommendation for mounts

For fixed mount, we would recommend you to install tactical monoblock mount on a Picatinny rail and great example of that would be Contessa tactical mount.

As far as the repeatable detachable mounts are concerned, one great option to consider would be quick release INNOmount monoblock.

Help us build our riflescope mounts database

If you have this rifle or any other rifle at home, we would really appreciate it if you could send us some photos of the rifle receiver (mounting surface of the rifle when there are no mounts installed), because it would help us expand our rifle mounts database. If you send us a photo of rifle receiver which we don’t already have, that would be of great value to us and we will definitely reward you for your help.

Please send us an email for more information. You can contact us here: info@optics-trade.eu

This is a subcategory of handgun mounts. At Optics Trade, we use the term adapter plate to refer to mounts either:

  1. installed in the place of the rear sight (non-optic-ready handguns) or

  2. those fixed on a milled slide (optic-ready handguns).

In this subcategory, there are also mounting standard converter plates, for example, plates that convert Trijicon RMR mounting standard to the Docter Sight mounting standard.

Before you purchase an adapter plate, make a compatibility check – inspect its top and bottom surface.

Its top surface is usually specified with the name of a red dot sight that has a familiar mounting standard, such as Docter sight, Aimpoint Micro, C-more RTS, Shield RMS/SMS, Trijicon RMR – this is written in the name or in the description of the adapter plate. Some adapter plates are compatible with several mounting standards; they are supplied with removable pins that the user can move from one position to another (adapter plates made by Tony System, Outer Impact, and some other companies).

The mounting surface below is usually specified with the name of the handgun on which it can be mounted. Some handguns, such as Sig Sauer P320, are manufactured in both optic-ready and non-optic-ready versions (depending on the version), so you must be careful to choose the correct mount. Adapter plates designed for non-optic-ready handguns are meant to be installed in the place of the rear sight whereas the adapter plates for optic-ready handguns fit directly into the milled slide of the optic-ready handgun.

Follow the instructions of the handgun manufacturer when mounting or have it mounted by a gunsmith.

Adapter plates are almost exclusively made from aluminium, except for certain components which are (sometimes) made from steel.
