Re: Photos - Germans with captured firearms
Those bolt-action rifles are Model 1941 Italian Carcanos, meaning that this photo was probably taken after September, 1943.

Always found this an interesting photo of German paratroopers using a captured Browning M1919A4 medium machine-gun during the battle for Normandy.
