The following are my Finn milsurp rifles. They are:
1937 M91/30
1938 SKy M28/30
1941 VKT M39
1941 Sako M39
1942 B-barrel M39
All are tack drivers, all were purchased in the last 2 years, and all cost me under $180. I am hooked! I wish this photograph could show the beautiful swirling wood on these rifles!

I only have 1 Finn surplus rifle. It's a very nice shooting Finn M39 Mosin Nagant. Very,very accurate.:)

That 28/30 is especially nice.
The Finnish Mosins really are the jewels of the family line. Here's two of mine:
A Sk.Y. on top and a "B" barrel on the bottom, both built in 1942. As you can probably tell from the sling and butt pad, the "B" barrel gets to the range very often. It's a great shooter.

I have three M39s and a model 28. All are suberb rifles that give me no end of enjoyment. If you miss out on these rifles, you have made a big mistake.

Hei mita kuuluu....
I better get busy and get myself one to go with the mate's M44 Polski.
BTW, I taught myself Finn (Suomi) just to tick off my mom and her husband, who worked for a Finn-owned company before he retired. They always had Finns in the house and although the Finn males spoke good English the females tended to not habla as well. Just a little something to make them more at ease while being rebellious.
hei hei.

Rabbit.
