The long barrels on those Mosins suggest that those things are ancient indeed.

The photo below, left shows Norwegian territorial reservists firing an MG34 (rechambered in 7.62x51mm) in 1987. It wasn't officially removed from service until 1993 IRL, so it would probably still be in use in the T2kU. In the photo below, right, a Norwegian soldier armed with an MP40 SMG stands guard over a bridge during an exercise in 1983.

The Romanian Revolutionary Guards also used the M34, but in the original 8mm Mauser.
