Museum of weapons (Argentina)
Some pics of the Museum of weapons from Buenos Aires (Note, I didn´t take the photos):

Nice display - I love the old 89 and 91 action Mausers. And I'm definately feeling some love for the handgun collection, there's stuff in there I've never seen in person. And one I don't recognize!
|
Most of them are those firearms that were tested but never adopted.
|
I assume you mean tested but not adopted by Argentina? Other than the Adler, Roth-Sauer, Bergmann 1896 and what looks like some kind of Astra prototype, they were all produced in appreciable numbers.
|
Yep. But many of them (like the Cetme rifles or the Astras) were donated by foreign delegations during diplomatic visits or as a simple contribution to the museum, so it would not be surprising to find many rare weapons.
|
Very nice. Now that's a place I'd like to visit.
