    What is it?

    Trying to identify the rather long beast held by the chap in the right-rear of this lineup.

    Somehow doubt the linked 20mm? ammo goes with it.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle.

    Vertical stripes with horizontal bullets??? How tacky!

    That scoped rifle looks like some kind of Winchester on steroids.

    Looks like a Winchester Model 1901 shotgun made over for the movie

    Winchester apparently played around with a "big-bore" centre-fire rifle built on the 1887 / 1901 action.

    Not released, from all accounts.

    Looks like a "lash-up" in the photo, then.
