Serial no. 50868. Manufactured in 1942 by Valtion Kivääritehdas (VKT), Finland’s State Rifle Factory, chambered in 7.62x54R, 27.5" round barrel. Bore is bright and shiny with strong, well-defined rifling noted. Serial numbers are non-matching. Metal finish has thinned to an even grey patina with expected high-edge wear noted, while the stock displays handling and military service impressions. Produced during Finland’s Continuation War with the Soviet Union, the M39 represented the culmination of Finnish development of the Mosin-Nagant system and is recognized for its improved sights, heavier barrel, and redesigned stock. A handsome wartime VKT-produced M39 retaining considerable Finnish military character. Action is smooth and functions correctly.
