" THE RIGHT STUFF"
I was not a an 18B ( I was ,however an 18D) So let me take a guess at the weapons in your pic. AR-15 type rifle, with 30 round mag. I can not identify the manufacturer. The pistols are The Para Ordinance SF-45A which you needed a buyers code to obtain one from Para-USA with the special price of $795 & if you wanted the light (M3XCB) it was a $150 additional. I got mine from the 1st Group & it was delivered to the gun shop in Payallup,WA.. The other pistol is a Pietro Beretta model 92FS cal. 9mm 5 inch barrel Parabellum. I have the SS version I purchased in 1992 cost $650 with 2 15 round mags. How did I do on the ID of the weapons pics? Remember I was a Medic & not a Weapons Sgt. Regard's, tom kelly.....Forgot The Pump Shotgun, looks like a12 gague with an 18 inch barrel!

I believe the shotgun is a Mossberg 500 - look at the position of the safety on top of the receiver.

It's definitely a Mossberg, though I would say a model 590.

590's have bayonet lugs, that one does not. It's a 500.

perfect, well almost
Good i.d.'s-
- The rifle is a Bushmaster XM15 E2S, I think "M4A3", but not sure how I tell A3 vs. A1 (I'm not a Bravo either...  )
- Shotgun is a Mossberg 500A, 20 in barrel.
- right on with the Beretta.
- The Para actually only cost me $695 and came with 5 mags (7th Group deal and has CJSOTF-A symbol on one side)
Oh- the mag on the Bushmaster I got from a buddy who was given some by a manufacturer as a giveaway prior to him going to Iraq. He got tons and gave me a few. I haven't used them a lot, but from what I have- they are nice. Magpul Industries, plastic, but very hard to destroy- we tried to mess them up, but they held pretty well; and they have a clear portion so you can see when you've burned through 15 rounds.

BOB:
Extremely nice collection.
Ive fired quite a few heavy caliber rifles, but NONE inflicted the pain that a M.N. carbine did.
And handled incorrectly, that dog leg bolt handle on the P-14 will get your attention.
Nice condition on the weapons.

Have to disagree with you on the bayonet lugs, not all 590's have them, I've got one upstairs that doesn't.

Can anyone ID this rifle? My father-in-law went to an auction and picked up several rifles and shotguns since I'm the favorite .
There are no markings (no SN) on the gun other than the photo I posted. It has an octagonal barrel. The trigger must be pushed forward when the hammer is cocked, it's the only way to cock it. It looks to be somewhere around a .250 cal barrel.
Thoughts?

Liege, Belgium manufactured Flobert single-shot lifting block rifle with a black powder (and possibly a smokeless powder) proof, later part of 1852-1893.
Could be a Flobert 6mm Rimfire, though the only way to tell for sure, without further markings, will be to cast the chamber and measure it.

Thanks for the info.
I took the stock off and it had BISCHOP BREVETE stamped under the barrel. There is a "B" stamped under the barrel as well as a "2" midway down the bottom of the barrel. It is also stamped with "Belgium" on the barrel.
On the lifting block, covered part of the trigger guard and covered part the butt are marked "11"
