It may be a knife handle . The middle rifle is not a Garand
and looks to be one of the bolt actions . Can't see enough to id the make ( captured K98
or which model of '03 ).

I was thinking it's a 1903 or A3 by the front band and swivel...could that be just a cigar in that guy's shirt?

Well, there weren't any mics that small back then.

LOL. It looks odd to me though. A knife would be a good option right there.
Anyways....
