Are the rifles with green forearms in the last row before the wooden stocked rifles SIG 551s? If so, by my count there are over 150 in the picture and knowing their likely fate makes me sad. There are a bunch of Ma Deuces in the lower right of the picture. and a bunch of FALs in the center.
Another picture.  That is easily $40M in collectible guns (on the US market) that will become rebar. Nice is overrated "It's every freedom-loving individual's duty to lie to the government." Airsoftguy, June 29, 2018 | ||

I like those square stacks also. I'd probably stockpile my yearly cache of Sam Adams cases inside one of the square firearms stacks. Hide it, you know. | |||

Now THAT, is an 'arsenal' or a 'cache'. MSM should take note. ________________________ | |||

When 2 overhead photos cannot cover your stockpile, you truly do have an arsenal. ------------------------------------ My books on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/William-...id=1383531982&sr=8-1 email if you'd like auto'd copies. | |||

That is an actual arsenal. Impressive. The fish is mute, expressionless. The fish doesn't think because the fish knows everything. | |||

Wow. Interesting mish-mash. The machine gun on the elevated mount towards the center of the second photo is a WW2-era Czech ZB-53 in 7.92x57mm (aka 8mm Mauser).  The ZB-53 was actually used by both sides during World War 2. The Germans used captured Czech ZB-53s, known as the MG-37(t), which were fielded mostly by the Waffen-SS. (The SS were constantly competing against the German military proper to obtain sufficient quantities of standard issue German rifles and machine guns for their troops, and commonly had to resort to substitute standard armaments like this.)   It was also one of the standard machine guns for German's ally Romania:  The British produced a licensed copy of the ZB-53, known as the Besa, which was primarily mounted on armored vehicles. It was the standard machine gun on WW2 British-made tanks. Interestingly, the British Besas remained chambered in the original 8mm Mauser, which ended up allowing British tanks to utilize captured German rifle/MG ammunition, and the Germans to use captured British tank MG ammo.  The Chinese purchased several hundred ZB-53s from Czechoslovakia before the war, which ended up being put to use against the Japanese.  The seized ZB-53 in the article's photo is mounted on an anti-aircraft tripod:   | |||

Nope - CETME LCs. Think HKG33-type 5.56 rifles with collapsible stocks and cruuuude rear sights. Which almost certainly didn't come through the 'legal channels' the article was talking about - those things were Spanish military issue until Spain switched over to a variant of the G36. Apparently Spain is also one of those countries where civilians can have .222 Remingtons, but not 5.56x45s. | |||

Maybe we could see a surge in the parts kits market. I'm sure Spain could use the money. I have my own style of humor. I call it Snarkasm. | |||
