    Correct guesses so far:

    It is a BAR copy.

    Hints so far:

    It is a Nation in Eastern Europe

    Extra hint, which will really give it away - this photo could not have been taken after 1939 :roll:

    the only BAR copy i can think of is the FN type D from belgium n it stopped production in 1939 so it has to be polish because they are the only ones who bought it?

    Correct, the Finnish name is Rynnäkkökivääri 95 (RK95). A very good weapon.

    The first one is as far as I know a Valmet prototype.

    First one is Valmet M82, based on AK/AKM internal design but chambered in 5.56 NATO.

    The Polish BAR was actually the RKM wz.28, licence built in Poland, apparently.
