Ah the good old days of war....when men were men and sheep were nervous!

Mod: if this is in the wrong forum please move accordingly

Oh cool. It has an automatic flip up face shield.

Too funny Warfab!!! I should have had the automatic flip up face shield at Williamson last year when I took the brass to the forehead!

The pop up face shield would have prevented your flinching issues.

Thanks for posting.
Always interested in firearms related content.

Here more on the Peterson design and function....

Here is the original round. If someone runs into one of these puppies and is concerned about the ammo
rest assured the ammo can be easily made form 6.5 carcano cases and others.

Thanks for sharing this video and information Meke! I find the Pederson a fascinating war (almost) relic and would love to shoot one. Rooting around the world of vintage military rifle sales I found the most recent one that sold was for $9000. YIKES!!!

$9K? ..ehh.. No thanks!


But Thank you!! for opening a firearms discussion. I love this type of stuff.

I am not very knowledgeable on classic rifles but I can appreciate the love people has for them.

If I could get my hands on an AG-42 or even a Hakim I would jump on the boat but cannot afford spending little fortunes right now.

Meke, at a recent vintage snipe match a guy was participating with an original Hakim scoped rifle that was clean and gorgeous. It was a 8 mm which I believe is the original round. It roared like a bear and the guy was pounded out of position on every shot. It was very accurate and impressive to see!

[Meketrefe]

Yyes they are 8mm that in egipt with the mausers was 8mm all the way.

If you get a chance to shoot an svd or even a decent psl you will see how accurate they can be. Very crude design but functional zastaba made one version with beefed up barrel and trunions similar to what molot and izmash do ...all SAFE BS non compliant now.. well with the exception of the modern saigas. Even some of the sporter molot VEPR are now out because they have cuts on the muzzle for recoil even witbhai the nice rifle stocks. I dont mind if they are not original but these must be pristine. Nobody likes an old prostitute with many diseases. Lol
