Hi, these pics are by me at a museum near Lima, Peru. Please Identify them. The first i think is a k88? and the second a fg42? but the second has a front sight that looks like that of the Russian DP

The left one looks like MAS-36, the other like a MG30.

Don't know yet what the right one is but definitely no FG42. Will check on.

The left one is a MAS-49, rather than the 36. One can tell from the position of the bolt. And the right one looks to be a MG13, but with a solid butt modification

Funny thing about the mg 30 altough swiss made and intended for germany's armed forces it never really caught on but come to find out chile bought about 47 for testing
