[@bullieboi]

Very interesting place to hunt!! Great finds! Thanks!

[@TrueVikings]

It really is! Thanks for watching John! :)

[@JontuuPresent]

6:09 dont stab the ground like that, nobody cleared the land mines in finland, they are still there and going off every year

[@jaybales3160]

Very good video. Did not know about that battlefield. Thanks for sharing this history. Congratulations on your discoveries. Looking forward to your next outing. Best of luck.

[@TrueVikings]

Thanks shaun!

[@topiturunen6644]

Siitä tietää että on Suomalainen kyseessä kun on saanut niin tarpeekseen hyttysistä, ettei jaksa enään välittää.

[@TrueVikings]

Näin on 😂👍

[@darthtraya32]

Vittu ihan sama pistäkööt🤣🤣

[@williamsoileau1802]

Very well done, very informative, detailed explanations, be safe. Keep up the great work.

[@moonliteX]

Missä vuijeminjoki sijaitsee?

[@colseb6123]

just a battle to get through all them bugs!

[@TrueVikings]

Haha. Yeah, there was a lot of them 😂

[@robinplays4424]

9:47 its 7,62x53R bullet chambered to M/28 "Pystykorva"

[@mystage11]

Is it really that light at midnight there ? Please explain.

[@TrueVikings]

It really is that light in the summer months. The sun does not set. But in the winter it's other way around and the sun does not rise in a month. 😅

[@mystage11]

True Vikings thanks for the reply . I did not know that this happened in your part of the world . I am from Toronto Canada 🇨🇦 . I learned something new . I love your videos.

[@TrueVikings]

Yes, it is only in the far north. Glad you like our videos. Greetings to Canada. 👍

[@SaltwaterSean]

Love it boys!

[@TrueVikings]

Thank you Sean!

[@hardyakka6200]

Well done. Good finds did you look at the bottoms of those cartridges to see where they were made the year and the calibre? Goodness me. Nice countryside not sure if I would like to fight there though.

[@TrueVikings]

Thanks yakka. Most of the casings were made in 1940-43. Some had the finnish ammo factory VPT stamped on them ( Valtion PatruunaTehdas, State ammo Factory). Some had random letters and numbers to our untrained eyes. Probably german ammo?

[@achilliaroberso9366]

Only for the brave ... Germans usually leave lots of loot .. great content as always ... stay safe you 2 Vikings . 👍

[@TrueVikings]

Thank you Achillia! More german stuff in next week's video! Stay safe you too :)

[@aaronbeatty1153]

Nice finds. Cheers

[@TrueVikings]

Thanks brother. Cheers 👍

[@darthtraya32]

Tarviiko näihin alueisiin hakea mitään lupia?

[@egigib...luulisin]

Ei, kun kuitenkin julkinen metsä.

[@ToeJuice]

I think that the 9mm cartidges you found was from a suomi kp31, considering every other rifle cartidge in the area was finnish

[@Alexthemudlark]

i had the privalage to go on holiday to finland in june and i took my metal detector lots of items but best of all 5 German bullet casings all on the same trench firing step. (same rifle)

[@kevinstrickland4881]

Its great to see you guys out detecting again. Great plan of attack on the area you're in. Crazy how it stays light out for 24 hrs a day!!#

[@TrueVikings]

Detecting is always the best. You get used to the light, but in the winter it will be dark 24h too. That is a bit worse. Thanks for watching Kevin :)

[@xisotopex]

you guys must be immune to mosquitos

[@TrueVikings]

What mosquitoes? :D

[@urho5487]

There is no mosquitoes in lapland

[@roskcity]

Hey man did you find anything in Eastern Finland? That's where the winter war took place.

[@TrueVikings]

We have some videos from Eastern Finland. You should check them out. But then our goal has not been to find WW2 items.

[@jessicasilveiracleto]

Thats very nice hobby

[@jonlindstrom2758]

Awesome video brother's 👌

[@TrueVikings]

Thanks Jon 👍

[@Micha-bk4gr]

[@globaleightfiveone1113]

I learned so much about history from you guys!

[@TrueVikings]

Thanks Global! We love talking about history!

[@pcpasix]

Not luger but LAHTI! 9mm Lahti pistols were used by officers and others.

[@russvoysey6254]

[@TrueVikings]

[@airsofter123]

[@TrueVikings]

[@Alexandros.Mograine]

Gotta be careful in these places. Since there can be unexploded bombs.

[@TrueVikings]

True that 👍
