really take your own collection to the next level? Well, here’s a way you can get into the Forgotten Weapons club and the NFA club at the same time:</p> <p><a href="http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=262385694">http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=262385694</a></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" class="aligncenter" title="Breda PG on GunBroker" src="https://pics.gunbroker.com/GB/262385000/262385694/pix584584392.jpg" alt="Breda PG on GunBroker" width="360" height="270" /></p> <p style="text-align: left;">Yep, that’s a live, transferable Breda PG up for sale on GunBroker. As you may recall from reading the <a href="https://www.forgottenweapons.com/lorem-ipsum/early-semiauto-rifles/breda-pg">Breda PG page</a> in the Vault, it was chambered in 7mm Mauser (this batch for Costa Rica was, anyway) and was the first production rifle we’re aware of to use a burst mechanism. For the Breda, a selector allowed single shot, full auto, and 4-round burst. Now that’s a rifle your buddies don’t have.</p> <p style="text-align: left;">For the record, we don’t know the seller or have any financial interest in the sale. If I though I could afford it, I’d bid myself and try to keep anyone from noticing the opportunity! 馃檪 So at this point, I will wish good luck to any interested parties – if you buy it after seeing it here, maybe you’ll let us come shoot it with you?</p> <div class="sharedaddy sd-sharing-enabled"><div class="robots-nocontent sd-block sd-social sd-social-icon-text sd-sharing"><h3
