Too bad about FNM, their ammo was first rate. You would think the Portuguese gov would want to encourage industry, not curtail it. I wonder how many folks on here have any real interest in these fine rifles beyond the "cheap shooter" aspect? Have a look at this fuzzy pic & tell me what you see.

Not made Verg carbine. Seen one you seen them all?

I wonder why it wasn't? It would have been interesting to see the muzzle flash and report.

At night it would be brighter than a flare gun. No thank you, no need to blow my cover.

Cover? Have you seen pics of the uniforms they wore at the time these things were in production? Needless to say, the bright colors & plumage did nothing to aid concealment.

Interesting link diopter !

Do you have a link for the Bugalho 1912 semi-automatic rifle ?

It's a new one to me.

No, Fraid not. The old link in this Portuguese Military forum from 2004 postings are dead.
