Can anyone help identifying this thanks 👍
The second pic looks to have a 76 stamp also. That would be production year, so almost certainly military surplus that was sold off.
Not that I have ever heard. They were originally in 7mm or 8mm Mauser chambering (7.92mm) but as surplus many had a 7.62mm bore and barrel stamping and were converted to 7.62x51mm (.308 NATO).Spanish MDL 1916 used by Guardia Civil chambered in 7.52?
True, so very true!Not that I have ever heard. They were originally in 7mm or 8mm Mauser chambering (7.92mm) but as surplus many had a 7.62mm bore and barrel stamping and were converted to 7.62x51mm (.308 NATO).
Your case is definitely 7.62mm Russian (7.62 x 39mm)
