Finland is much less densely populated than the US ~ and it's cold much of the year.

Only way to keep those bad boys busy is to put them to cleaning guns.

Plus, back before WWII the Finns had to fight a war against Russia.

They won ~ but to make it stick they had to agree to expel the quarter-million German troops then billeted in Finland.

They against went to war, beat the Germany army, and sent them packing to Norway.

Not likely they have any intention of ever being disarmed.

And not much chance that anybody wants to tangle with those bad boys.

What was the population of Finland during WWII, maybe 6 or 7 million tops? What was the population of the USSR when it invaded Finland and got it's butt kicked back to Siberia, 150 million or more? Nobody in their right mind would want a piece of those guys.
