It was Russia's failure to invade Finland that convinced Hitler Russia could be taken. You should read "Rifles of the White Death".

Does anybody know where I could purchase a Finnish Mosin. I plan on getting one I just don't know if I want an M39 or an M91. I am really looking at getting one that will be a real shooter.

Why is it, everybody who wants a Finn only knows M39 and M91? There's an M24, an M27, an M28 and an M28-30! A whole, beautiful range of Mosins to slobber over... AND accurate, to boot!
Personally, I want an M28 or maybe an M27... And that's only if I can't lay hands on a nice Finn Model 29 with the blonde wood attachments as shown below:

I know of the other Finn models I just thought that either an M39 or M91 would be the easiest to get because they were made in the highest numbers.

I think I am going to sell my mosin and trade it in for a Remington 700 SPS Varmint or Tactical.
