To the "original poster" (OP) Srupidhaircuts:
Very nice looking M39. You should be proud of it!
I have no doubt that it will shoot straight too! They usually do!
PS: show more photos! We love photos!
:thumbsup: :thumbsup:


To ww2_bf_finland:
You should start a new thread with a thousand pictures on it! LOL
PS: Did I mention, we love photos!
:thumbsup:

I wish I had a M39 with a stock as nice as these are. :wink:

I got in a bit late and only got two or three from her. What was the original story with her?
Damn, I'll bet that's going to leave a mark! Probably hurt too!

Her husband bought and imported all the firearms from Finland he could buy. He got in trouble with the ATF and lost his license. The ATF or a judge let his wife, Pat and his son sell off all the inventory that was left. They sold off the inventory off one at a time until Classic Arms bought all that were left and they finished selling until they were out and gone.

Was that about 2014 when they got the last ones ?

Thanks for the info. I can remember stuff I did at work in the 1970's but can't remember what I was supposed to be doing about 10 minutes after I got told to do it now.
