Looking @ the picture, the 2nd (second) rifle closest to her, on the ground is a pump action. Nothing say's hello, like the sound of a pump action putting one in the chamber.

Prior to my horrific boating accident, I owned a *** a.k.a. WW-1 "Trench-Sweeper," "Trench-Broom" or more commonly known as a model 1897 Winchester pump. John Moses Browning’s Legendary Pump-Action. Famous in the movie with actor Yul Brynner; The Magnificent Seven.

The short-barreled Model 1897 also caught the eye of Hollywood and was used in a number of major action films, including “White Heat,” “The FBI Story,” “The Professionals,” “Bullit,” “The Wild Bunch,” “The Untouchables” and “Pearl Harbor.”

John Moses Browning belongs in that national garden of statues.

The 1897 served through Vietnam, the 1911 likewise, the 1919 through Korea, the M2 is still in use today.
