I'll play. Starting from the top:

1) M1 Garand
2) M1 Carbine
3) No. 4 Mk.1 (or 2)
4) Mosin-Nagant M1944
5) Model 1891 (This wouldn't surprise me if was a "variant" between two other Italian rifles).
6) Model 98 (looks like it may be a little too long for a 98k)
7) This is ( I am hoping) a Japanese manufactured rifle from WWII. I will go with an "early (before the war) manufactured Type 99 in 7.7mm caliber.

The Italian and Japanese rifles look as though they were built either before WWII or very shortly after it began. They both look as though quality control was good at the time of build.

Looks like Im a little late...
