Interesting piece, haven´t seen that one before. If you would take a Bren gun and snap off the magazine and handle it would be quite close. Company B have some:

Not sure if one exists but I'd look at anyone who produces a Pancho Villa range, Brigade, OG etc. The US Army used them at the time and they were a big factor in the raid on Columbus in 1916.
Em dezembro de '81
Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo

There range of Americans is pretty sparse a the moment. With only 2 rifle section and a command section as of now. No word as of yet when they will make the hotchkiss.  At least as of the last time I asked them last November  lol
"Peace" is that brief, glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading.
