Shapes is wrong, I would go either a shotgun conversion (and the mag would help) of a CETME, or some type of CETME prototype.

Can't find anything on that beast.

I've looked for it as an anti-tank rifle, as a shotgun, and as a light machine gun. No dice. I give up...

can you post another pic please from a different angle, or give a hint...
Okay, here's another shot of it (less the grip and stock - most of my photos are of the internal parts). And for a hint, it is an experimental piece developed from a commonly known gun that ran like a fine clock. I've got a nice shiny red apple for whoever can figure it out.

Ok, the grip looks alot like a ruger MK series,
the upper looks alot like a CETME
and past that, I'm out.

looks like the illegitimate child of an FAL and an STG 44, so does that have anything to do with it??

is it integrally suppressed?

I just noticed that it has some similarities (at least in my mind) with the PTRS-41 (an anti tank rifle designed by Sergei Simonov), but that's not exactly a well known gun... maybe another hint???

if it's not integrally suppressed, it's got to be something big! or a shotgun. To explain my previous post, It looks Russian.

Wow, this is a hard one. I've gone through 3 gun collectors digests so far!

Ok, I will posit that it is a version or prototype of the development of the Swiss stgw57
somewhere between the Ak46 and the AK53, with a blow forward action or a version of gas trap.
That said, the trigger guard is off on it, even if the rest isn't (but stock looks later in the iteration towards the 57) but the trigger guard and grip has a milled look instead of stamped and bent.

must be quite a version/prototype! I'll say it again, "I think we need another hint!"
let me rest my "google-fu"
it'll probably be answered by the time I check back in. This is by far the hardest one yet, IMHO!:banghead:

Another hint: it's chambered for .30-06.
I'm pretty sure nobody will find reference to this one online or in anything but the most obscure published pamphlet. The only way to know it is to recognize it from previous experience or figure it out from my more subtle clues.
I'll be posting all the photos on my web site in a week or two, and then there will be a Google-able reference to it.
