Latest revision as of 16:27, 11 October 2024

The Finnish firearms manufacturer Valmet built assault rifles, in co-operation with Sako, based in part on the Kalashnikov action in the early 1960s, and continued to manufacture them up until 1994. Valmet later merged into Sako (in the late 1980s), and the some of their designs are currently being manufactured.

The Valmet Assault rifle series can be seen in the following:

M62 pattern

Valmet M62

Valmet M62 (Rk 62) (older model) with wooden stock - 5.56x45mm
Valmet M62 (Rk 62) (modernized) with plastic handguard and tubular stock - 7.62x39mm. This version is the most commonly available/used version of the rifle.

The original Valmet AK-derived rifle was the milled receiver Model 62 which was offered in 7.62x39mm and 5.56x45mm NATO for export. The model M62 (known as Rk 62 in Finland) was adopted by the Finnish Defence Forces, and still serves as the standard infantry weapon of the Finnish Army.

The M62 has an unusual T-shaped tubular buttstock, compared to other Kalashinkov pattern rifles. The gas block and front sight design is very similar to the Israeli Galil rifle, as the Galil was designed based on the Valmet.

Valmet M71S Sporter - 5.56x45mm
Valmet M71S with plastic handguard and resin stock - .223 Rem

The M71S was a stamped receiver offering that more closely resembled the original AK-47 design and was developed for customers who wanted a rifle that looked like an AK-47 (since at the time many customers couldn't get a military or civilian version at all). The M71S was built between 1971-1977 and was offered in 7.62x39mm and 5.56x45mm NATO.

The Valmet M78 is derived from the M71S design.
