Hi all,

I came across this pic taken at Gran Sasso.
It looks like this FG42 is equipped with a scope.

What do you think : scope or no scope ?
Do you know examples of period pics of FG42 with a scope ?

Yes 100% it has a scope. If I remember correctly there is another picture of these same guys and you can see the rifle better. I'll see if I can find it.

This may not be the same guys but definitely is a scoped type 1.

Thanks, do you know the location ? The landscape looks Mediterranean.
