Valtra Valmet

hilltree · Apr 9, 2000

Hello: I always enjoy discussing Valmets. Being one of first Valmet owners in Canada in 1995, I have watched its growing popularity here in N.S. We have "logged" over 12500 hours on our 6600 Valmet in our farming and forestry operations and am totally empressed with it. Hoping to hear from other users. Jim

I for one am totally ignorant about the machine to which you refer. Could you post a web site so I (and others I am sure) can learn about it?
Thanks,
PaulB

That's a new one on me, too. I'd never even heard of it.

Re: Valmet Firearms

I just wanted to mention here that i owned and ran a gun shop in Alaska for many years. I sold Valmet rifles and shot guns. They are excelent quality, and i hunted all over Alaska with a Valmet O/U - 12 guage/3006 combination gun in my hands. I still have the very first one that came into my shop, and it's still a great gun.
