Know Your Mosin 001: The m/27-66 and m/28-76 Target Rifles
The postwar Finnish Defense Forces created both the m/27-66 and the m/28-76 to solve the same problems - shortages of target and sniper rifles during the Cold War. While the FDF held hundreds of m/39-43 sniper rifles in reserve, these were over 20 years old by the 1960s and beginning to show their age. These two rifles collectively represent the penultimate development of the Mosin-Nagant in Finnish service prior to the adoption of the Tkiv-85 during the mid1980s. This video attempts to show some of the differences between the two designs, which at first glance are very similar.

Mosin-Nagant History 001 - The Finnish M39 Physica "PH" Sniper Rifle
Просмотров 1,1 тыс.3 месяца назад
Matt dives deep into the history of the elusive M/39 PH sniper rifle, one of the rarest Finnish Mosin-Nagant variants in existence. He'll also explore the interwar development of Finnish sniper rifles, including the M/37 (better known as the M/27 PH), the M/39 PH's predecessor. The Mosin Man presents his ongoing Mosin-Nagant history series, delving into each variant of this iconic bolt-action r...
The Finnish Lahti L-35 with Milsurp Mike
Просмотров 606Год назад
The Mosin Man Channel's inaugural video is a collaboration with @MilsurpMikeChannel that was filmed back in June. A few things happened between now and then, chiefly a 1,600 mile move across the country and starting a new job. That being said, this video on the Lahti L-35 kicks off the channel's content. In it, Mike and I explore the Finnish Lahti L-35 and Swedish Husqvarna m/40 at a strictly w...
The Mosin Man Channel Intro

Just a quick preview of some of the things that the Mosin Man Channel will be covering in the upcoming months. In particular, I will be hosting a series of videos on the development of Finnish firearms. Some of the more interesting varieties that I will take a look at include the m/39 PH, m/39-43, and the m/39 SOV. Of course, I will not be limited to these models, but they certainly stand out a...

    Excellent video! I'm just beginning to regret I didn't pick up an m/28-76 back when I had a few opportunities. I have never seen the m/27-66 in person.

    Glad to have found your channel. Extremely good content as well. Other than VKT barrels, any info on mid to late 1940s Tikka barreled M91s?

    • @themosinman
      @themosinman 2 месяца назад

      The last year of Tikkakoski m/91 barrel production was 1943, but AV1 and AV3 did assemble wartime production barrels after the end of WWII.

    A Finn here, when you said SAT = Suomen Ampumatarvike Tehdas, you did pretty good. 👍 Not perfect, but totally understandable.

      This After Hours series is great! 1. In your opinion in terms of standard issue rifles of belligerents nations (both major & secondary players) in World War II, how does the m/39 stack up/rank compared to the rest? 2. When the invasion of Ukraine happened in February 2022, there were comparisons made by some of the War in Ukraine to the Winter War. Do you think those comparisons are fair from a historical context?

    Great video! Watching this about the universal scope made me think about the US using a commerical scope and mount for WW2 snipers. Sooo hypothetical question. Let’s say there’s an alternate universe and the US wanted to adopt the mosin over the 1903. What mosin would suit the US needs/ what features from different mosins would the US use? (any Mosin variant even post ww2)

      1. Given its growing pains, how many different stock variations did the m/27 have? There are sources stating that the Finnish Army sent a number of m/27s to the Civil Guard, is this true? 2. What did the transition entail of m/39s from a straight stock & Puolustuslaitos variant to the more common variants produced after?

    • @MilsurpMikeChannel
      @MilsurpMikeChannel 3 месяца назад

      Since I believe you said you have learned the language, we could use some good phonetic pronunciations. i.e. Puolustuslaitos, Asevarikko, what SAT and VKT stand for, etc.

      It would be interesting to hear more about Finnish use of captured m44 mosins. If at all I think another interesting topic would be how lessons from WWII affected subsequent small arms development in Finland Unrelated and Just for fun, in the apocalypse what is the only 1 caliber you use? All and any reasons are fair game, no restrictions

    • @grzesiukaa6803

      1. what was the purpose of the mosin 7.62x39 experiment in Finland? 2. what do these original rifles look like?

    • @mattfalk6621
      @mattfalk6621 3 месяца назад

      The Finns had a decent amount of M91/30s. How many were sourced via German capture? And how are those specific M91/30s distinguished?
