A small collection found in Southern Lebanon today by the IDF
Posted by yuvalbeery@reddit | ForgottenWeapons | View on Reddit | 45 comments
STG-44, M1 carbine with no stock, Hakim rifle, PPSh-41 variant (with folding stock and chopped handguard), some dueling pistols, a flare gun, and two SMGs of the same kind I couldn't figure out.

The militia of Occupied Palestine can't do anything other than steal.

I feel like im having a stroke looking at that picture. It all goes pew, but it looks like it goes pue
Kindlypatrick@reddit
What kind of armory has an STG and four 'shiver me timbers' ass muzzleloaders in it
yuvalbeery@reddit (OP)
A private collection, not a terror cell, although we have seen STG-44 parts in the west bank
Razafraz11@reddit
Pretty sure this is just some guys house
unnccaassoo@reddit
That's looting
floralvas@reddit
That’s one fancy Carlo (furthest right).

Botched Hungarian 53M given to the PLO in Lebanon

I’m blown away by the number of STGs I see in the Middle East
yuvalbeery@reddit (OP)
Most originate from Syria, they somehow got a few crates and even made ammo for them some 15-20 years ago
beepbeeptaco@reddit
A stash of them were captured by FSA rebels and used until they ran out of ammo during the civil war.
Desi0190@reddit
Very interesting
WonderElectrical9528@reddit
Thanks to the GDR and Poland

This is probably somebody's personal collection. The IDF likes to loot houses when they advance. There's videos of them stealing Women's underwear from houses in Gaza.

IT BELONGS IN A MUSEUM
Chumlee1917@reddit
Betcha a nickel the flintlocks were basically wall hangers
Key-Lifeguard7678@reddit
Or family heirlooms.

Someone was rocking that 1600s quad pistol loadout

I love the Obrez M1 Carbine
yuvalbeery@reddit (OP)
The owner had a fetish for sporterization, luckily the STG-44 did not suffer that fate.
FrozenSeas@reddit
They weren't an official issued weapon, but pistol-chopped M1 Carbines were a thing. Commercially marketed as the Enforcer by a series of companies in the '60s to the '90s, and Inland Manufacturing has a version called the Advisor in production now. That name being in reference to the scattered documentation of MACV-SOG using cut-down M1 Carbines - there's pictures around of one that's been chopped, converted to 9mm and suppressed, they got...creative in terms of equipment.

Obrez stg44 seems painful
TheIrishNerfherder@reddit
Whats the one between the obrez m1 carbine and the sawed off shotgun?
BoredomThenFear@reddit
Hungarian Kucher K1 SMG. Only about 800 were ever made.
TheIrishNerfherder@reddit
What are the odds its some kind of kyber/homemade copy? How did it end up in lebanon
BoredomThenFear@reddit
It’s probably the real thing, it seems too obscure a gun to copy on any large scale. The Hungarian Peoples Republic supplied arms to the PLO during the Cold War so it’s probably a result of that.
TheIrishNerfherder@reddit
Anyone make a 3D model of it? Or a replica? It’d make an awesome star wars blaster

This is even sadder than the weapons seizures by cops in the UK

Give that hakim to me. Please. Please. Please. Please.
Classic_rock_fan@reddit
That is a rough looking Hakim
BoredomThenFear@reddit
There’s what I think is a sawed-off IZh-18 to the right of those antique pistols, and the SMH to the right of it looks a bit like the obscure Hungarian Kucher K1 in 7.62x25mm Tokarev.
yuvalbeery@reddit (OP)
Oh yeah these are K1s! Probably originating from Hungarian support to the PLO
