	The Finnish Maxim Machine Guns (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The Finnish use of the various models of Maxims was a key tool in their fight for freedom in their War Of Independence (1918), The Winter War (1939-40), The Continuation War (1941-44), as well as the Lapland War (1945).
		During the Finnish War Of Independence (also called the Finnish Civil War) of 1918 these Maxims were used by the Finnish Reds and Whites as well as being used by the "Soviet/Russian" troops on behalf of the Finnish Reds.
		One of the biggest needs in the Finnish Defense Forces was a competent and reliable MG that could be used by a wide range of troops; however, the need for such a weapon was almost critical when talking about defensive positions.
