For what it's worth, a lot more Swedish L-40s were made or brought into this country than Finnish L-35s. I grew up in an area with a lot of people of Finnish heritage and then studied Finnish history, including about the Winter War, so I held out until I could find a Finnish Lahti.
1 I have an Enfield too, but mine, of 1934 vintage, has an hammer spur(thank God).

Anyone else get recently interested in a different type of firearm?-dsc00014-jpg

2 The Swedes managed to ruin a few of their L-40s using ammunition tailored for sub machine gun use. So I'm a bit wary on them.

But I do have a Swedish service pistol. And it was made by Husqvarna.
