A couple shots from the Latvian War Museum



WW1 Turkish Winchester 95



Mauser anti-tank rifle


They had rifles from pretty much every major country in WW1 and WW2, but for the most part they were common surplus rifles in mediocre shape. These were a bit interesting though.

Was the winchester in 7.62x54r? Do want.

I think I misinterpreted the display a bit, it seems that this is the equipment of a Latvian soldier who fought against Turkey. The rifle is Russian, and in 7.62x54r

I want that Mauser Tankgewehr badly!

One sold in Nevada a year plus ago for the asking price of $8500. Bolt mismatch. Assume you have to make your own loads from a modified .50 cal round?

There's in Austria who supposedly makes ammo for it in small batches. Not anywhere near cheap, though.
