Commemorative poster released in conjunction with Forged in Snow: Finnish Small Arms, 1917 - 2025.

In the late 1950s Finland adopted its own domestic version of the Kalashnikov assault rifle as its standard infantry armament. A series of versions were made over the next half century from the first simple models to stamped receivers, folding stocks, and the all-new RK95 and modernized RK62 patterns. This poster illustrates the progression of Kalashnikovs adopted into Finnish military service using James Rupley's unmatched photography.

Specifications:

  • 18 inches wide x 24 inches tall

  • Ships rolled in a tube

* Posters ship separately from books and other ancillary items; therefore, they will carry a second shipping charge if ordered in combination with a book or other merch order.
