The man in the first photo standing on the far right side has a Czech Vz.24 rifle.
He who lives by the sword, should train with it frequently.

The soldier is carrying the 7.62 mm DT 29 tank machine gun used for the coax and AA gun mounts. I was a version of the DP-27 light machine gun used by the infantry. It had a collapsible butt stock and could be equipped with a bipod for dismounted use
