From my honeymoon in 2013. It was a rainy day in Bern so we were hitting up the different museums since our Swiss-Pass train passes gave us free admission. I had already found the museum online so we were able to work it into the itinerary. Unfortunately I didn't get a chance to try out the indoor air-gun range at the museum.

If I recall that is a Sturmgewehr Mod 57 chambered in 7.5 Swiss. Adopted in 1957 before migrating to the NATO standard. The barrel was copied from the WW2 German design.
