Tamarms...FINLAND...16 Feb....Finnish rifles aplenty!!

[saddler]

Will add to this thread once I've had a chance to put my feet on to soak and had a coffee or three.

Show was VERY busy.

One or two bargains.
Turned down a soviet PE scope for €300 as swmbo was hovering too close when I was told the price.
Also passed up an Ajack 4x90 for €500

Bought an early Mossberg scope, a good reference book on Finnish WW2 uniforms & an SA marked ammo pouch - to say the latter varied wildly in price would be an understatement.
We paid €8...identical pouches were on other stalls for €125.

Saw some nice old British rifles in .22
Have a few contact details now for Finnish dealers with open export permits.

Watch this space....

Try this guy. Bloke I know called Heikki (of course!) talked to him at a show and he is happy to export. His stock seems somewhat depleted since I bought from him however he can probably track down anything Mosin related if you ask. He also (refreshingly for firearms dealers the world over) replies to emails.

I bought from him and would recommend him.
