I'm guessing some sort of M1? I don't know how big the Garand or the Carbine is, but the one in the picture doesn't seem to be really small, so I'm guessing it is a M1 Garand. Also, it has the odd stick magazine. Just guessing, I'm probably wrong...

Also, you sort of didn't disguise the URL and it says "Garand" right in it...

Agree with those above. That fellow with the strange eyes must be John Garand guarding something very important.:nod:

7mmag6,
We all know that the photo is of Mr. Garand. The point that 7mmag6 is what is the important part. It's the first Garand rifle.
Thanks again
Clancy

Gentlemen,
The answer to Photo is Mr. Garand taken in 1920 with a semiautomatic rifle.
