I think thats a Cetme, but hard to tell them apart. I'm just guessing from the wooden forearm. Newer Cetme builds from Century have the black furniture nowadays anyway.
H&K G3:
Cetme:
The Cetme of course became the G3, there are some differences, most notable about $1,000+!

Built by Porsche replicar experts Beck, this 356 Speedster’s got an AC motor good for 50 horsepower: about half the power of the original Porsche 1600 engine, actually. Even with the added torque, it’ll still feel slow. You can get up to 75mph in that thing, but that will seriously kill the 80-100 mile range in the 17.2kWh battery pack. Have fun dicing it up the 405 against speed-addled truckers and and bros in jacked-up Sierra Denalis…when they can’t see you or hear you, it really puts into perspective the phrase “life is a gamble.”

A cycle car contraption called the Hornet from the early days of the Shelsley Walsh hillclimb. Twin bike engines, twin chain drives. Might take big man parts to drive at speed - then again - maybe not too big - they could get caught up in all the spinning chains...
Ever wonder why the speed limit is slower through canyons?
This is between me and the racetrack in Pueblo where I've done a bunch of testing. 100' long. The detour is 100 miles.

The CETME has that flip type rear sight and the H&K has the drum type like a dial. That's the easiest way to tell them apart. The one in the pic has the drum type, as does mine. Mine's actually a Century Arms G3 clone. Yes, the difference was about $1k. LOL I got the rifle and extra mags for like $650 if I remember right. Scope, laser, remote laster switch, rail system and all I've got about $1200 in the gun. It's awesome...
Wanna see mine?

After M4 style stock (my arms are long, so this really helped make the gun comfy)
