I had a creepy rifle once as well... I too was glad to be rid of it.

You know were my ERMA came from, and how it was captured, creeps me out since the day I got it, sometimes knowing things about a milsurp is not a good thing.

I had a yugo sks with tally marks on the stock. After reading a little bit about what these rifles went through over there, it definitely made me look at it a bit funny. traded it for a no1 mkIII* though a couple years back.
My 1942 dot. k98 though doesn't appear to have any creepy history, but there is no way to be sure like an SS rifle. Love my K98, one of my favorite shooters.

Not to many firearms make me think about the atrocities that may have been committed but that one sure did ;)
It was orginally made in Mathuesen Concentration Camp by inmates for the SS. It was a russian capture and there was some very severe blood pitting on one side of it.
