Anyone recognize the gun being carried by Capt Henry J. Adams on p6? It doesn’t look like an M97 trench shotgun.

I looked at the picture a long time. It looks like a smooth bore weapon of some kind.

This is a posed picture. My guess he is holding a captured nip submachine gun. But I could be wrong.

Japanese WWII Submachine Guns Top: 8mm Type 100 with Folding Stock ... Middle: 8mm Type 100 (1944 model) Bottom: 7.63mm Bergmann 1920 (SIG, Swiss) used by Japan
