    early war anti tank guns

    As the L39 Lahti was selling for around $99.00 it was a good buy, but what we really wanted was the Solothurn S18-1000 semi auto that was recoil operated and was mounted on rubber tires. It used a longer 20mm (20x138mm) but the sellers had a lot of ammo, trouble was it costs around $250.00 or $350.00 which was just too much !

    Photo shows two 20x113B mm short cartridges from the Lahti L39. The blue nose with white band is Finnishicon A/P tracerAttachment 89838Attachment 89837
