There is some speculation about Belgians converting them for SCW, but it's hard to say. This is a very interesting topic, one of which I will be following as well as I am also interested in more 8mm Blindee information as well! But if indeed they were sent to Spain, why aren't more seen, and why didn't they come in to the US also like other SCW Mosin related rifles did that we see here in the states now?
