The M2 was fully auto but is unlikely to be found although stats are provided. This weapon has essentially no felt recoil and thus is suitable for the small framed shooter. It is physically quite small and was issued to truck drivers among many others. This weapon does not have a bayonet lug
M1 Carbine is still being made and sold today and has been in constant production with one company or another since the early 50's here is good source for post WWII models and producers.

The real issue would be more ammo than the gun? Outside of industrial societies like the KFS it would be nigh on impossible to get high quality ammo that could be used in Maxim style mechanisms. So a savvy foe with musket armed infantry could hold back and wait for them to burn up whatever ammo they had. Possibly leading to them retreating?

I suspect Krell would prefer paper based cartridges as used in early needle guns. More fire power than a musket, but if you've got a member of your team that can make even poor quality gun powder then you're able to stay in the field far longer.

So something more like,

and

In fact Howdah style pistols were more popular than modern revolvers for quite some time.

Of course each raiding party would have a small collection of veterans equipped with modern weapons stolen from whomever to act as snipers/fire support.
