My momsdad shot in Salla, Winter War, 39 communists at night in one row.... He told us later:.... "Men came... I shoot at them.... Three times barrel was red glowing... They were calm men (enemies...)". He was not proud of this. Just did what he had to do...... :s

@MrSpadeofAce

There was some info that, he did kill some Soviet sniper from about 450m , which is very far for just Iron Sights. Thats the longest shot which is recorded for him.

@BigRooster747

you know that on that time of the year, there is only couple hours of daylight at that part of Finland. Then its darkness... Does not matter much if Sun rises from east. Not at the winter time of year.

@Rethgore

and we dont know how many uncorfimed kills... last days of war, he got about 40 uncorfimed kills, but these are not counted anywere for him....

And yep... he got about 200+ confirmed kills with SMG

@MrTripleCC

it is pretty yesy to spot grey from the white snow like you said, but remember that this record was done in 105 days, which was the Winter war long...
