Qatari Royal Guard m/71-76 Valmet
This video showcases the rare m/71-76 Valmet rifle, a unique AK variant produced by Valmet for the Qatari Royal Guard. Unlike standard Finnish Defense Force models, these rifles feature distinctive wooden furniture and nickel plating. The description details the rifle's lineage, noting the m/71-76's adoption of AKM-style stamped receivers and the m/71's reversion to open notch sights. The video highlights a significant commercial sale to Qatar, with an estimated 50 units produced.
