This video delves into the Finnish m/27PH, also known as the m/37, which holds the distinction of being Finland's first standardized sniper rifle. The video details its development as part of the m/27 rifle family, highlighting the structural issues that delayed its adoption until 1937. It discusses the rifle's original 2.2x Physica Oy prismatic scope, noting its fragility and poor eye relief. The evolution of the rifle is traced, including the replacement of short bolt handles with Soviet-style ones and the addition of wooden cheek rests, driven by experiences in the Winter War. The video concludes by mentioning that damaged m/27PH rifles had their scopes repurposed for newer m/39PH models during the Continuation War, making the m/27PH an extremely rare firearm today.
This video showcases the SIG SAUER BRAVO4 Battle Pack, a 4x32mm prismatic scope with an illuminated ballistic reticle and advanced optical design for clarity and an expansive field of view. It features direct-mounting capability for reflex sights, enhanced by the inclusion of a ROMEOZero red dot sight in the Battle Pack. The scope boasts motion-activated illumination (MOTAC), a 1.535" sight height for night vision compatibility, and is IPX-8 waterproof and fog-proof. The package also includes essential accessories like a mount, lens covers, and manuals.
This video explores a pair of transitional Swiss sniper rifles developed between the K31/42, K31/43, and the eventual ZfK-55. These unique firearms feature prismatic scopes similar to the K31/43 but with a fixed front scope end and detachable scopes, a characteristic of the ZfK-55. The rifles originated from the SIG museum and represent a fascinating period of Swiss military firearm development and experimentation in the mid-20th century, bridging the gap between carbine-based sniper variants and a dedicated sniper rifle.
