Yep , 8x56R Hungarian Mannlicher. After the Nazis overran Hungary , they impressed indiginous arms ammo and their factories into their own service. Sportsmans guide has been selling genuine 40s ammo.

Where is the Swastika? All I see is the nazi bird symbol. I can't remember if it had a name.

colt100 The Eagle is carrying it, too small to see in the Pic.

 

[colt100]

Oh, ok. I couldn't see it and didn't know if I was missing something.
