Sako Finnbear Serial Number Location - Expert Assistance

Question
Sorry for the mundane question. I looked everywhere I could think of and the serial number isnt there. But thanks anyway. I thought you might give me a place to look.

Answer
No apologies needed and I did not consider your question " mundane".

So...... to clarify,  this is a "homework"question due to the amount of time needing invested to even come close to giving a halfway accurate answer and I'm not going to just make a best guess so as to appease you.

The serial numbering system and records for Sako is convoluted at best. Google Sako serial numbers and you will probably find a chart showing similar information as mine. As you will see the numbers are all over the place with many ranges not even listed.
