I own two Finnish WWII mosin-nagants. One is a M28-30 (1939)same model used by Simo Häyhä. Other is a Tikka M39(1944). Finnish rifles especially Tikkas are highly sought after here. You Finns are great craftsman. We admire your history also.

I actually just went out and shot my ’41 VKT M39 today. They are fantastic rifles. I would love to get my hands on an M28/30
My old moose hunting rifle on the 4th pic… Accurate thing.

[Tkiv 83](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/7.62_Tkiv_85) is going to be retired soon. If that’s the sort of thing you’re interested, keep your eyes out.
Interesting guns, but why with original russian stock? I was under impression that SA marked rifles were fitted with a slightly different stock during 40’s, one with a grip. Those russian stocks were in use in the civil war 1917-1918 and not often seen today with army stamps. Even the civil war museum in Tampere, Finland had mostly anachronic “modernised” stock versions on display.
Do you need a license to own that or is it unusable? I’d love to get a license to own a rifle in Finland. Use to go shooting all the time with my great grandpa’s 1941 .303 Lee Enfield. Would be awesome to do the same here if possible.
Am interested in the Tika. You wanna sell!
