Mystery Mauser - Haitian? Czechoslovakian? Or Not?
This video investigates a mysterious Mauser rifle identified by 'Haiti 1957' and 'CZ 29 - 53' markings. The presenter, from Forgotten Weapons, details the discrepancies between this rifle and known Haitian arms purchases (FN model 24/30 short rifles in .30-06). The rifle is chambered for 8mm (likely 8x57 Mauser) and features a puzzling chamber symbol. The video explores the possibility of it being an unmarketed CZ 29/53 pattern and questions Haiti's use of 8mm in 1957. The presenter seeks viewer input to identify the rifle.
