The first rifle is no way a Snider. It's bolt action while Snider rifles had external hammer and latch-locking breech block. Greg-Z (talk) 12:10, 18 July 2015 (EDT)

I'm sorry. But how do you think - what is this rifle. Many times it's clearly seen. Pyramid Silent (talk) 12:47, 18 July 2015 (EDT)

I have no idea. The shape and position of the bolt and bolt handle doesn't match any of the rifles that fit the place and time. In any case, the shape of the stock allows to guess that it's a military rifle, converted for hunting. Greg-Z (talk) 13:12, 18 July 2015 (EDT)

Maybi it's Danish Mauser M52 (book of Alexandr B. Zhuk, 10-7, in my book it's page 577). Pyramid Silent (talk) 13:19, 18 July 2015 (EDT)

The shape of the bolt looks different from Danish M52. More XIX-century style, as for me. Greg-Z (talk) 14:32, 18 July 2015 (EDT)

Looks like a sporterised Type 13 Murata. Here is a site with a load of pictures of an original military Type 13 Murata and you will see that the bolt is rather distinctive. --commando552 (talk) 12:45, 27 July 2015 (EDT)

Here is a sporter Murata chambered for an unknown (to the seller) smoothbore/shotgun cartridge where the resemblance to these movie guns is more obvious. Here are a few more Murata based shotguns (apparently commercially manufactured for the American market) but they are based on the slightly different Type 18 action. --commando552 (talk) 12:55, 27 July 2015 (EDT)
