In honor of Simo Häyhä birthday, show your M28's

Post by Lee-online »

Simo Häyhä birthday is tomorrow, December 17. Lets celebrate that with a thread full of M28's

Here is my M28, all matching and wearing its SYT stock. This is a great shooter, don't take it out too often but enjoy it when I do.

Just nitpicking, no offence guys. But you'd need an updated m/28 in Simo Häyhä's birthday thread. :)

Yes, my M28 is stored away with no pics available at the moment.
Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.
Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.

Really nice m28's here.

I have a nice one but still want to add a ski trooper. Seems like these are going up in price every time they sell.

SIG on an Chatellerault receiver. Rifle has 3x hash marks in the left finger groove. Maybe someone was keeping track.
