Finnish M36 Question

[Sauron249]

How hard is it to obtain an original Finnish M36 tunic? I've never bought one before and know next to nothing about Finnish uniforms from this era. I really find the country's position unique in WWII and how its government remained independent throughout the entirety of the war (except for getting weapons and food supplies from Germany). I just saw one for sale and was wondering how hard they are to get since I've never seen an original one for sale before.

Hi they can still be picked up in Finland at shows but you need to find a wartime dated one as this model of tunic was also used post war into the 1970s ,most issue tunics are mark INT and then the date but its harder to tell with talior made tunics as they arent normally dated
