Name the weapons
I had the pleasure of spending an hour or so in the Armour museum at Puckapunyal yesterday and what an amazing place that was! 88 vehicles ranging from WWI through the present day, with about 85% of them having served at some stage in the Australian Armoured Corp.
Also on display are a few small arms, uniforms, etc. So, I thought, why not spread a bit of the joy I felt while wandering about this amazing place? Below are three photos of the one display from different angles. Unfortunately I only had the camera on my phone available by that time (I'd run out of film snapping all the other good stuff) so they're a little grainy. The question is, how many weapons shown can you identify? Attachment 933 Attachment 934 Attachment 935

Hmmm.... Well the PIAT and the Boys ATR are easy enough. And presumably that's one of the American gatling guns. But the Light Machine Guns are tricky....

Don't forget the 5 gallon molotov cocktail
I believe that's a Webly revolver

Pretty sure you've got an MG-42 there, in addition to the others mentioned.

I think the most telling detail about Australian soldiers is the pair of BBQ tongs hanging out of the pack.

There's also an earlier MG-34 next to it, I think. I see a Bren to the right of center and a Webley or S&W revolver.

You're right on the MG-34. Actually an MG-34/41...last version of the MG-34 produced.
