The company continued manufacturing submachine gun cartridges for the Finnish Defense Forces through World War II. In between wars, the company gained financial independence from the Finnish Civil Guard, relocated its headquarters to Riihimäki, assumed the name SAKO, and began exporting pistol cartridges to Sweden. Their first shop was a converted Helsinki brewery, where gunsmiths refurbished captured Russian weapons for use in the Finnish Army. SAKO first opened its doors in 1919, shortly after Finland declared its independence from Russia, under the name Civil Guard Supreme Staff Gun Works. The company’s name hails from a voluntary Finnish militia, called the “Civil Guard” or “White Guard”, that successfully crushed socialist opposition during the Finnish Civil War of 1918.
