Finland guns

[Andreas the Great]

We have to have some gun from Husqvarna! That's the place in Sweden that I'm from...
Well that's a good reason to have it ingame isn't it?

[Fuzzy Bunny]

Guns? Screw that, I'd love to see Finnish infantry going into battle wielding Husqvarna chainsaws, lawn mowers and leaf blowers.

LOL
Make a serverside for it and call it FH meets DOOM & Home and Garden TV.

LOL, a chainsaw would be a lot cooler than that stupid fillet knife the Fins use....

Ooo I like to use some Finnish m26. But DP is cool too. Do you think that finland will have little pit bigger role this time? Like 2 or 3 maps?

They were both main LMGs of Finland, in the begining of winterwar L-26 was the only LMG of Finland, but DPs we captured were taken in use immediately after capturing, in the end of Winter war it was as common, if not more common than L-26, in continuation war DP was clearly the most common LMG of Finnish army, but all L-26´s were still in use.



Suomi smg was the main smg of Finland through both wars, but in Winter war 1/5 of the smgs were bergmann smgs This could be added (with 50 round box magazine)



In winter war it was used in the front line, but in continuation war it was used by civil guard ...

Boys anti-tank rifle was the main anti-tank rifle of winter war, and lahti rifle was the main antitank rifle of continuation war :P

PS. SRY for suprisingly long list of weapons :P

Some of them won't be that long because there would be some mixing of weapons from other countries. This is especially true when some of the captured arms from the Soviet Union exceeded the Finnish weapons in some of battles (ie. M1891/30 and its sniper counterparts or the M1895 Nagant).

Didn't the Soviets used the crappy PPD-34, PPD-34/38 and PPD-40 in the Winter War? When the PPSh-41 came into play, they replaced all of the PPD almost immediately.

Yep, and M/91, M/27 and M/28-30, M/39 can be modified from M/91-30
From M/91-30 to M/91 = New sights
From M/91 to M/27 = New Front sights and a shorter stock & barrel
From M/27 to M/28-30 = New sights
From M28-30 to M/39 = Pistol-grip, thicker stock, new place for sling swivel, and new place for front sight.

And the Simonov rifle I mentioned can be modified from tokarev rifle.

And I beliave it wouldnt be to hard to modifie Luger a bit to make it look like Lahti pistol.

"Didn't the Soviets used the crappy PPD-34, PPD-34/38 and PPD-40 in the Winter War?"

Yes they had, but not in the front line, soviet leaders didnt believe in SMGs, so they rested in stores, after winter war they were taken in mas produktion, Suomi SMG had convinced them to believe that SMGs would be very usefull in new wars Instead of smgs Russians used semiautomatick rifles in large scales, whole units were armed with Tokarev and Simonov semiautomatick rifles

We recieved a pretty nice looking m26 from finnwars.
