Top definitely looks battle damaged and lying out for decades but the bottom one is a non gun, a rubber rifle as we called them. Just painted fabulously.

They exist and I had to hold myself back when I saw one for sale at Collector Source here. It would have made an excellent addition to my then collection. Only one I've seen. Different still, wonder if the one you show was cast for a movie like "Tumbledown"...
