Description:

This is a fine example of a rare Spanish CETME Sport semi-automatic rifle. These CETME rifles were based on the design developed by the German engineer Ludwig Vorgrimler in 1945 who also used this design to develop the experimental German StG 45(M). The Model C rifles use the same type of delayed rolled-block, blowback type mechanism that eventually evolved into an extremely successful and very famous HK91/93 series of rifles. Shows the standard large MARS Equipment Corp. import mark on the right side of the receiver and "CETME 'Sport'" on the left. With ventilated hardwood forearm and stock, scope mounting blocks on top of the receiver, contoured pistol grip, and ventilated CETME recoil pad.

Rating Definition:

Excellent with 95% plus original dark gray phosphate finish, trace of light spotting on the receiver, and handling marks overall. The stock and grip set is very good with some scratches and dings. Mechanically excellent.
