Can anyone ID this weapon? I think the photo was shot in Ireland, if that helps.

Definitely G-3

Could be a CETME too. But the CETME and the G-3 are practically identical.

G-3 or similar (the CETME was the basis for the G-3 design, so almost the same gun...)...

Were CETMEs made with synthetic handguards?

I'm pretty sure it is a G-3, but I'm by no means a CETME expert.

G-3 for sure. CETMEs have an obviously curved mag.

Look it has a adjustable sight and green handguards. Cetme has wood and nontumbler sight. MMMM looks like a g3 sounds like a g3 must be a g3!
