Well anyone could answer this. What do you all think about Israel and Libano.

What we all think about Israel and Lebanon have nothing to do with Argentinean Military unless UN will decide to send Argentineans in Lebanon as peace keeping forces.

I prefer this gun for operations in the mountain. is very rugged.

A couple of rare guns, the Stg 44AR in 7,92 mm kurz and the Garand for the 7,65x54mm argentine cartrigde. The further developmet of this were dropped in favor of the FAL. Both were made in very few numbers by the Military factory of Rosario.

To be continued…

#359

i cant read french or spanish, so does it mean argentina is going to use STG44 in their military?

#360

Yes, but the Military at that time does not content with simply test it, they manufacted both also. The Garand was at that time a little outdated ( early 1950) but the argentine Sturmgewehr was very promising.
