Unfortunately, My grandmother has cancer, how does this have to do with WWII guns? I will get to that in a second. She is in the hospital and my mother has been able to visit her everyday. While sitting down in a waiting room, she overheard two older folks talking, they began to talk about the war, at first, they mentioned that a gentleman in their family wasnt in the war, but his best friend named Bayne was in the war, well, Bayne is the name of my Great Grandfather(the one who brought back the battle damaged mauser and many other guns, but we dont know where any of them are except for the battle damaged mauser, which is up in my room). The mention of the name Bayne had gotten my mother to listen in a little bit, then the lady began to mention about how good of friends they were, then she said "he even brought him back a German rifle with a bayonet, Bayne Petty was his name". Bayne Petty was my Great Grandfather, so my mother ran over, introduced herself, and began talking with them. She later on gave them our phone number in case they ever wanted to get rid of the rifle.
My Grandfather said we would never find a single rifle he brought back other than the one we have, boy was he wrong.
