Description
9/18/26 - This is a nice example of a rare Finnish Valmet Lahti L-35. In the early 50's, Israel procured a few hundred of these guns from Finland, and the surviving guns were then surplussed out in the 70's. The Israeli contract guns can be identified by 3 small milled circles on the left frame, where Hebrew military characters were removed by the Israeli government for security purposes. It is all matching with no import marks. The gun's original finish rates about 93%. While there isn't a ton of actual finish loss, there are areas of light scratchy wear throughout, concentrated mostly on both sides of the frame, along the barrel, and on the grip straps. Two small dimples in the metal on the left side of the frame. Fitted with reddish plastic grips and comes with one proper magazine. Mint bore.
