The Tikka T3 is a series of bolt-action rifles manufactured by Sako under its Tikka brand in Riihimaki, Finland, designed in 2003 and in service since 2006 for both military and civilian use. The rifle uses a two-lug locking bolt action and is offered in numerous calibers and configurations, allowing extensive customization of sights, calibers, stocks and barrel lengths. It has been adopted by several nations' military and law enforcement units, including France's National Police and Gendarmerie in its T3 Tactical variant, Canada's Rangers under the licensed C-19 designation, and the Indian Navy's special forces.
