Screwdrivers.
I found this pair of screwdrivers together for less than $10, Both are [SA] marked so I figured I cant go wrong.
Not sure what their story is except one is Finnish and the other has the firing pin protrusion gauge. A quick look online and libertytree has them for $25 each.

That R in the circle Remington made one is getting really tough to find so you did real well at the price! Congrats! Bill
Re: Screwdrivers.
I remember when these were all over e-Bay, as well as the full Finnish Armorer kits. I regret not picking some up; OTH, I have plenty of Russian combitools.

Re: Screwdrivers.
So, were these issued to troops in a kit along with other tools or just to armorers?

The Billnas marked tool is for the M27.
A nice pick up for $10 total. Congrats!

Re: Screwdrivers.
Many years ago AIM or maybe Centerfire had genuine SA cleaning kits and they were a virtual grab-bag of those screwdrivers and I bought about 20 of them. Got some really neat ones. I also got one that was SA marked but meant for a Machine gun and I still have that one. Had different pieces in it. You just don't see a lot of them like that anymore and todays parts sellers have crazy prices compared to what they are paying so I buy very little on that market. I don't mind a little profit but double plus a bit turns me off to them. Bill

Re: Screwdrivers.
I did a quick search after I got mine and found them, they look a little different to mine, are they Finnish, Finn captured or Russian?Longcolt44 wrote:Liberty Tree Collectors has what they are calling a Finnish screwdriver tool for $24.00.

Re: Screwdrivers.
They say they are Finnish but also say there are no markings.

Re: Screwdrivers.
These things vary quite a bit and I would say each individual one's markings are to be used in ID'ing them to their country. I have one that is circle R marked and then later has SA markings too. I would say that tells the story on it. Bill
Re: Screwdrivers.
