This video delves into Finland's final Mosin Nagant sniper rifle, the TKIV-85, adopted in the 1980s to replace older models. It discusses the two conversion options: a Mosin system with a new bedding block and a purpose-built Valmet Model 86. The TKIV-85 was chosen for its cost-effectiveness despite the Valmet being superior. Two variants are highlighted: a military version and a dual-use competition rifle with lighter barrels and aperture sights. The video thanks Frozen Trigger for access to the rifles and promotes a Kickstarter for a book on Finnish small arms.
