Thank you Morgan Kane. The adaptor is not for sale! Sorry! I�´m keeping all the equipment that I got from the old man.

Only things that I�´ve used are the ammo. It�´s funny that the ammo is all in good condition even so the brown boxes are from late 1940�´s and 1950�´s era. I had some allready open boxes which I�´ve been shooting off. The boxes that are in the pics are unopend and they all have stamp on them which says that "Vajaalaatuinen", meaning something like "inadequate quality"!

There is a story into that stamp. The old man who sald the weapon and the equipment used to practice shooting so he had a friend in Lapua ammunition factory who stamped all the ammo that he needed in practicing. In those days the 2nd quality ammunition was given to aid youths shooting training. The ammon in those boxes are prime stuff, but is only marked 2nd quolity.

What�´s funny also is that the ammo is 60 odd years old but is prime quality still!!!!
That�´s what astonishes me!!
