Hungarian BM52 PU sniper M1891/30

[Junk Yard Dog]

Oh I have no reservations about posting it, this was the first milsurp I posted on the internet some years back, I just want to leave the showcase open for members rifles, there is at least one other BM52 on the board, maybe two. Shooting it , now that is another issue, I don't feel it would be appropriate to use this rifle as a casual plinker. That's the problem with knowing the story, or some of it anyway behind a rifle you collect, it isn't just speculation anymore, the blood is real. I have the same problem with the K98k bringback, it was captured near a terrible camp, very likely the soldier who carried it had taken part in the moving of the inmates and murder of many more just hours before he himself was made a good Nazi by the young American officer who brought the rifle home. Every time I pick it up I think of people in filthy striped uniforms, gaunt with starvation, piles of body's stacked like cordwood.....
