Pretty serious firepower there. BAR, M3 with mags taped together for quick reload and 2 M1s plus at least one fragmentation grenade I can see. I woldn't want to assult their pile of rubble!

Somewhere this past year I recall someone posting a range report showing the differences in point-of-impact when an M1
is centered on the X ring while a 16", 10", 8" and without a bayonet. It was interesting how far you had to adjust with the heavier (longer) bayonet. I tried to search for the posting but I'm not having any luck trying.
