    A couple of Valmet M39's

    The VKT factory became what is later known as Valmet.
    Top is 1942 B, bottom - 1944 VKT.

    Real nice wood on the top one. They both look good, but that top one is great.

    I tried to push the envelope, but found that it was stationery.

    Have you heard about the new corduroy pillows? They're making head lines!

    Very nice. I kind of regret not picking up an M39 when I had the chance.

    Haven't fired either one of them. I'm slightly downsizing my Mosin collection. I had a lot and only had fired a few of them.

    The ones I had loved Hungarian light ball and Yugoslav 180 gr. heavy ball. 1980's vintage Russian in the spam cans was also pretty good in them. They did not like Czech ammo.
