All the Finnish designations for weapons follow the particular formula Caliber Abbreviation Year (Special Property), so the correct designation for the m/95 would be, of course 7.62 RK 95TP, which means 7.62mm Assault Rifle (rynn$kkkiv$$ri in Finnish) 95 Folding Stock (taittoper$ in Finnish). The earlier version of the assault rifle would be 7.62 RK 62 or 76, depending on from which batch it came from. Even the artillery pieces are designated like that - for an example the Vammas 155mm field gun from 1998 is 155 K 98 (K stands for kanuuna=cannon).
