1941's

[Vlad 11]

Today is June 22. Its the 70th anniversary of Operation Barbarossa. I had to pause and think about it. I grabbed my 1941 M38 out of the safe and gave it fresh coat of oil contemplating what it may have gone through.


Any other '41's out there? Any nation. Soviet - German. Pearl Harbor's 70th coming so... U.S. - Japanese ... anything produced in that tumultuous historic year.

Let's see your 1941's

I've got an M39 and an Enfield from that year. Both incredibly accurate.

Fixed the bayonet for the momentous occasion.

Finally here's my 1941 Finnish VKT M39 (which was actually my first M39 ):

Sorry for the shoddy cut and paste, but it's the middle of the night and I'm too lazy to dig and get nice pictures.

10 years too early, but this definitely showed up on that day.



Thanks for making a commemorative post for the day the Reich signed its eventual death warrant.

I bought my first case of 880 from SG today, to celebrate.

This is like looking at the Sears Christmas catalog when I was a kid. I want that, I want that, I want that.
