Following rifles in Snider-Enfield section look different:

Pencroff's rifle has different stock and possibly is shorter (maybe not).

Neb's rifle has different stock (maybe same gun that was hold by Pencroff).

Note the semi-grip stock, similar to various Mauser rifles.

A pirate at the left possibly holds a Frolovka, same that is used by Ayrton - very similar long thin barrel, and possibly Mosin magazine can be seen.

This rifle (which barrel and front part depicted on the previosly screenshot) also has the semi-grip stock.

Maybe, it will be useful to ID? Pyramid Silent (talk) 12:56, 20 October 2018 (EDT)

Sorry, I cannot identify this rifle. The semi-grip stock appeared on military rifles only in late XIX century, so it's rather a bolt action rifle, possibly a Mauser of maybe an Arisaka (some details match while other differ). Greg-Z (talk) 13:38, 20 October 2018 (EDT)
I guess, it's the Arisaka Type 38 with the removed bolt handle. The Karabiner 98k a hardly appeared in the pre-war Soviet movie, while the other Mauser rifles has the different shapes. Pyramid Silent (talk) 18:17, 20 October 2018 (EDT)
