Oh yes, I still remember how exhausting it was carrying the thing during prolonged marching exercises at arms length at chest level. 😅

The Spanish Legion fought against moors in Sidi Ifni, (Colonial Wars in Morroco) one unit was Elit Spanish Legion Paratroopers...

It is certainly reliable and has a softer recoil impulse compared with the German HK G3. This is thanks to a heavier buffer in the stock. Thank you for watching.

I used it in 1976-77.... awesome!

Legion (Extranjera) Espaniola, mucho respecto! ... Yes Sir!

mi padre también usó ese fusil en el servicio militar también decía que era increíble. Mucho respetos para tu padre.

hehe makes sense. Thank you for watching.

Correct

What fun would a script be? hehe thanks for watching.

Thanks for continuing to watch. Please tell any friends that might be interested in our channel too. We have several videos coming up; some old guns, some new.

junto con el AK 47 los dos mejores rifles de asalto y según algunos el Cetme mejor que el AK

@@ap9139 por comparación presencial, el CHOPO mayor alcance y mayor precisión,

En mi opinion sigue siendo junto al FN FAL, tengo ambos

Thought about that but we ended up recording all of this one while at the range, so didn't have it with us.

Yo era también del 86/87 5 reemplazo Brigada 42 de alta montaña

Thanks,

cetme works on g3 with h&K, but the new cetme is CETME L, using by "guardia civil"

Neither has he

thanks for watching, cheers.

Thanks for watching.

Thank you,

Thanks for watching.

The original CETME Model C did ahve a paddle mag release. It was deleted when made into a semi-auto for the USA market sadly.

Yep,

GUILLERMO LEON the chopo 💪💪❤💛❤

jose antonio mejias cazorla y yo amigo Que zumbidos pegaba el chopo 82/2 Tarragona

Pues a mi me parece que se atasca demasiado(una vez en la mili se me atasco 9 veces en un solo dìa)

@@LiquidRuss ese arma en concreto por algún problema. Este fusil fue de lo mejorcito en muchos años y su munición hacia mucho daño.

It's not a copy you dumb idiot, Cetme was commissioned by germany to develop the battle rifle known as G3. FN FAL and G3 are the same project, twins, and all rifles developed by Cetme also come from the same project and design, you ignorant.

These spanish rifles only exist thanks to Hk, then Mauser, along with german gov hiring them to produce the rifle for german army. I am Portuguese and Portuguese army used G3 for decades

Thanks to Hk? hahahahahaha

PatryArmi Fee Yes thanks to HK. And I dare you to prove otherwise and beat me in an argument. The G3 made in partnership with this Spanish organization, and the FN FAL are the same rifle, with some design changes between each model, both were commissioned by German government based on their specifications and and template provided by Mauser. The other Spanish rifles that followed, are based on that project with German government to produce the G3. I am Portuguese and Portugal used the HK G3 as its main rifle for decades

The CETME's roots lay with the STG45(m) developed in Germany at the very end of WWII. After that war, some of the German engineers found themselves guests of the Spanish gov't, and beginning in the early 1950s, they worked with the Spanish engineers at what became CETME to deveop a rollerlocked (delayed) rifle. The first prototypes appeared in 1953-1954, with the Mod. A a short time later. Meanwhile, West Germany was first interested in the FAL, which had been developed by FNH of Belgium starting back in 1947 and based on blueprints dating back to before WWII. In 1955, W.Germany obtained some early FALs, adopting the rifle as the G1 a year later. However for various reasons this arrangement didn't last long, so by 1957-1958, they were in the market for a new rifle. This is when HK & CETME worked together to improve the original Mod. A design. This resulted in the Mod.B which Spain adopted as the Modello.58 and Germany as the G3. Later, CETME would update their rifle to the Mod. C in 1964, while HK would evolve theirs into the G3A3 and so on and on. It is all very interesting and a neat story, cheers.

Agreed, CETME could make a very nice rifle. It is a shame that Century has given them a bit of a bad name in more recent years.

@@ozarkbeararms8840 I have one of the early Century rifles. When I first fired it, it would double. One trigger pull two bullets fired. The dealer I bought it from had since closed and had moved away. It sat in my closet for quite some time before I decided to get with Century. At first they were reluctant to help me, but when I threatened to go to ATF, they agreed to fix it. Since then, it has performed flawlessly, very accurate and pleasant to shoot.

Thank you for watching

Yes it will fit...a bit of filing 'might' be required but nothing major. The kit even comes with a file for just that.

Not sure if you're in America but Atlantic has parts kits for 165 dollars

Never have found firm production numbers for the military's Mod B or Cs. They were kept in service, upgraded to fire 7.62mm NATO. As to standard mag, really there wasn't such a thing back in the '60s. CETMEs used CETME mags, just as G3s used G3 mags, M14s used M14 mags, BM59s used BM59s, and so on. The only half standard might be the FAL, but even there tehre were two different mag designs. At that time, pretty much every nation was still doing its own thing.

Try 900 now 😭😭

Thanks for watching.

you are welcome my friend!

How much?

Miguel Domínguez how does one remove it I can’t do it on my c308

Y una nota escrita que alguien siempre ponia😂😂

Thank you, cheers.

1/1)2 moa at 100.yards hit side barn now ha

Miguel Domínguez I have seen that in videos about the G3 too, maybe the US forbid the paddle in imported rifles.

The area where the magazine release normally goes is the same part of the receiver that houses the select fire mechanism. In order to be imported this area had to be blocked with a solid block to prevent a relatively easy full auto modification. So the paddle was replaced with a button higher on the lower receiver.

Sure, the fact remains that the provenance IS from the Spanish knowing a good thing and participating in it's DESAROLLO ! ... Aaaand, now you can talk about HK, .... Gracias CETME !

One german.

Muchísimo mejor que el AK 47.El rifle ruso tenía un alcance de 500 metros y el CETME de 1000 metros

I am a Vector distributer.....have been selling their firearms for years.

Ozark Bear Arms awesome I have been seeing them on GunBroker have been looking for more info on them to look into buying one.

Probably some are my own auctions.

Well you had the 7.62 CETME round originally, but this gave way to a domestic loading of 7.62 NATO in/around 1964. Even Spain's later 5.56 NATO ammunition was made just a tiny bit different from the rest of Europe, but such differences just make collecting and studying these guns that much more interesting. I do enjoy Spanish firearms, much respect, cheers.

Best Steel during 50s-60s-70s-80s was Spanish... The Toledo Sword tradition

But not Cetme L from 90s or G3 or Century Arms new models...

Certainly, Spain has turned out some very nice firearms over the years. Early M1893 Spanish Mausers were very attractive, and Star has made very good quality pistols such as the Model B Super.

so is friend

I was in the special forces of Spain in 1984 in the special operations companies COE. There I had the opportunity to use it and it was really a high quality and reliable weapon. We called him CHOPO.

El de la mala reputación es el que se fabricó a continuación, el CETME "LC" . Se fabricaba en munición 5'56 mm, mucho más pequeña pues en la OTAN se impuso la idea (estúpida idea) de que no se debía matar al enemigo, sólo herirlo. Así su país debía curarlo y mantenerlo de por vida, con el consiguiente gasto público. Fue un desastre de diseño. Cuando se ponía en ráfaga el cañón del LC se recalentaba hasta ponerse blanco y sus elementos de baquelita se deformaban. Un desastre. Pero el "C", el del vídeo lo puedes adquirir sin problema. Eso sí: siempre que lo encuentres en bien estado o estés dispuesto a gastar dinero en un maestro armero competente.

El calibre original es 7.62x51

@@sebastianrodero1635 Sí.

Yep, and we did a video on it here about a year ago...that's why it is just an honourable mention in this one.

Ozark Bear Arms ah I see;) well your a lucky man mischa

yes, in Morocco(with the Legion), Nigeria, Dominican Republic, Congo and other countries.

Its recoil is actually quite gentle....for a 7.62mm NATo that is, cheers.

Fusil de asalto,no subfusil. Y si,muy bueno,tuve el gusto de disparar con el en el servicio militar.

@@odaxovv fusil de asalto

@@manuelgomez2749 Para ser un fusil de asalto tiene que ser un calibre intermedio, al ser 7,62x51mm es demasiado calibre para ser considerado fusil de asalto y se considera rifle de batalla

Well, I am a gun dealer, which does help. What really helps the most though are very good friends. Most of my best guns are because of them.

Nah....sold that one...worth too much coin, at least to others compared to what I thought it was worth heh.

En el caso de este hombre sería un mérito. Porque si te fijas, las gafas que usa son opacas y el bastón que hay apoyado en la mesa de trabajo no es para espantar moscas, sino porque tiene problemas de visión parcial o total.

Or CETME pattern? lol couldn't resist.

@@ozarkbeararms8840 Boom!

I still have this MARS CETME today...fun rifle, Merry Christmas.

@Ozark Bear Arms HK is the modern incarnation of Mauser, the CETME model 58/G3 were built on Mauser project, so yes it's HK design, but also CETME cause both organizations co-developed it Both the G3 and the Model 58 are siblings but have their own differences that became more apparent with time, as both companies started making other variations of the G3 and the 58 family respectively. Like the 5.56 version, the HK 33 and the CETME L, that look similar but are different enough to be obvious that are from different manufacturers
