Unique L 35 Lahti Target Pistol with Stock Bipod
Cool Forgotten Weapons merch The Lahti L35 pistol was adopted by the Finnish military with the intention of it replacing the Luger, although production was never great enough to accomplish that goal. Early in its production, a couple of special target models were made for field shooting use, and this is one of them (serial number 052). It has a much longer barrel than normal, extended sight radius (your choice of aperture or open notch sights), and a detachable buttstock with a very interesting design of bipod. A door in the side of the stock allows storage of spare sight parts, cleaning gear, and a spare magazine. Truly a unique pistol thanks to Sako for giving me access to film this example from their factory museum Contact: Forgotten Weapons 6281 N. Oracle 36270 Tucson, AZ 85740
