Assuming these are German soldiers the different handguns are interesting.

Even if it’s fake, the Germans used any and all weapons the got a hold of.  They basically overran all the gun factories in Europe and turned manufacturing to their own use.  Think FN in Belgium (Hi-Powers) and the Polish Radom 9mm that might be in his right hand.

That's quite a collection!!

MP44, Beretta 38, Hakim 8mm, Spanish M43 8mm, Czech VZ52, US M14, maybe a MAS 49/56 in the far right?

I'm guessing it is shoot what you can get. Must be fun keeping them fed with the proper ammo.

I heard a story years ago that Annie Oakley used wax bullets with shotgun shot mixed in the wax when she did shots in arenas and other public places. It gave her a better chance of hitting her target and stray bullets were not a problem. I wonder if that was what the rodeo parade shooter was doing.

University of Missouri Rifle team. 1968. I wonder if she is still shooting in her 70s now.

Looks like the rifles we used in the late 80’s when I shot on the BGA rifle team. They were old and supplied by Vanderbilt. They are fun to shoot.

Possibly a Winchester 52. Shot them a bit in 66 and 67 but much preferred the Remington 40X.
