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?

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.
