It is not always easy to spot the gas trap variations in a group/pile of rifles

Send them to me and I'll work on it...as always, nice stuff.

So when does your museum open?

There are eight rifles in this photo, all are Springfield:

one is early gas trap with the fluted gas cylinder, two have the later third type gas cylinder. Only one gas port rifle has a trapdoor buttplate.

It is difficult to notice in either a recent photo or a WW2 photo - the different features on these rifles
