Were the small, oval-shaped sling slot escutcheon plates used by the Finns ever used on any models other than the M91 and M91/30 to cover the sling slot holes in the stock? Thanks.

Do you mean the ones with the round holes for the wire hangers?

The ones meant for the wire hangars appear mostly on m/91's and 91/30's with a smattering on some m/27's that have one of the varaint stocks which means it could have been a 91 rear section to start. But mostly the plates with the holes in it was used on 91's.

Sometimes these same plates were used on early M91 stocks that never had the slot and only have a hole drilled through them, presumably by the Finns when they installed the plate. You wouldn't know it unless you removed the plate, but I have at least one like that.

Indeed I was asking about the escutcheon plates with holes to accommodate the wire hangers, such as is shown in this photo. Thanks!
