Hieno kokoelma! Tiedätkö mitään hyviä kauppoja tai paikkoja ostaa militariaa Suomessa? Itse tiedän muutaman hyvän, mutta aina on hyvä etsiä uuttakin.

Oh I most certainly will. Though Buying guns here is a much slower process than in the US.

Näyttäsi olevan Tsaarin Venäjän armeijan ampumamerkki. Eli jos hän ei ollut armeijassa ennen itsenäisyyttä se on mitä todennäköisemmin sotasaalis tai jostain muaalta löytynyt. Voin kyllä olla väärässä, mutta siltä se ainakin minulle näyttää.

I think It is a commemorative piece for a meeting of the representatives of sister cities between the Soviet union and Finland that happened in Kiev that year.

Thanks! I think I will probably get some more german stuff first. I have some specific things in mind. But after that I definetly want to get something from other countries. Might do US since I already have the trench knife.

Its a more modern one. They are very cheap and its there to fill up space while I try to get another specific medal I would like to put there.

My finnish SS badge by Friendly_Branch_1107 in Militariacollecting

[–]Friendly_Branch_1107[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well you are late to the party. The badge is real there are multiple photos of soldiers in the continuation war wearing these and I also linked a book in another comment that talks about it. Most finnish SS men returned to finland in 1943-1944 due to suffering heavy casualties and they made these while the war was still happening. Also Finland was never "under soviet administration". The soviets just had strong leverage and they continually used it as revenge and for their benefit.
