Found it in in T313 R304 Pz.AOK3

Thanks Carius,

a question about the first photo in your entry # 183, the rifle looks like "mounted" to some very stable "whatever," could be a "Lafette" for a machinegun, probably a training photo, no idea from my side..? :?

Does anyone know how the Russian confirmation system for their snipers worked???

Post #188 shows a scoped Vz.24, a very rare item. I'm not sure that soldier is German.
He who lives by the sword, should train with it frequently.
