The Finnish Crown Jewel rifle

Post by RGRWJB » Fri Feb 02, 2007 6:55 pm

This is a Finnish Cavalry rifle m/27. Only 2000 were made and completed in 1935. Of the 2000 made, 304 survived the war and were sold to Sam Cummings of Interarmco. He imported them into this country in the early 1960s. This one was issued to the Uusimaa Dragoon Regiment. A very rare bird.
