Description
3/4/22 - This is a gorgeous example of a Rare Finnish VKT / Valmet Lahti L-35 Rig. The Lahti L-35 is a semi-automatic pistol designed by Aimo Lahti that was produced between 1935 and 1952. Designed to be manufactured autonomously in Finland, the pistol was used by Finland throughout the Winter War and Continuation War. Considered to be of high quality, the Lahti was well manufactured and worked reliably in cold conditions or when fouled. The use of a bolt accelerator, an uncommon feature in a pistol, helped make the Lahti reliable. A Swedish copy of the L-35 Lahti, the Husqvarna m/40, saw extensive service with the Swedish military until the 1980s. The m/40s had similar design and firing mechanisms to the Finnish L-35s but suffered lower reliability from the lower quality steel used in manufacturing. This one is all matching, but from research, has an early 1950's Valmet replacement slide. it comes as a rig with an excellent holster and three proper magazines. The gun has retained virtually all of its finish with a few very light surface scratches here and there. Comes with excellent reddish VKT grips. The bore is near-mint.Specifications
