Photo: BSA with rider and a gun.

Hi,

I found this photo on an Israeli "Nostalgic" site.

I never saw it before, and it looks a bit add..

A rider in uniform and a gun (Sten sub machine gun?)
On a civilian looking BSA.

Cheers,
Noam.

Noam, the gun is a German 9mm MP40 Schmeisser, clothing and number plate hint to something northerly? maybe Norway?

There is some numberplate collectors websites, that could be checked.

Cheers,

Lex

Thanks Lex.

I thought that the gun was a "Sten" because of the stock,
But the "Storming grip" on the front, under the barrel did look strange..

Cheers,
Noam.
