I guess the third guy killed his deer with his bare hands. I see no gun with him.

I tried working with the pic as well. With the tube I figured Frozen Guy is packing a Winny.

The ammo belt with two boxes of cartridges went along with the hunting knife with a 12" blade back in the day. I have my grandfather's stag handled Kabar purchased sometime in the early 1920's, it looks as good as it did when he bought it. The sheath on the other hand long ago fell apart. not made nearly as well as the knife. Grandpa's other knife a jigged horn handled Remington UMC two bladed muskrat while in nice condition for a knife that is 80 + years old certainly shows that is was used much more than the Kabar.

Aha.. I think you're right. I was taking the tube for the forearm. I can see the loading gate on the side as well.

I think Comfortable Guy on the right used his prototype 99R to club his deer to death and then for the photo either hid the rifle behind the stump because the R was still a trade secret or because he was just sick and tired of hearing all of the heavy gun jokes, or something like that...
