Answer 2

i think its an m-1 grand

Incorrect.

A scope could not be mounted on the M-1 Garand. It was a bolt-action Model 1903 Springfield. PFC Jackson fired the gun left handed, which required him to reach over the rifle to operate the bolt after each shot.

It was not The Model 1903 Springfield. It was an M 1903A4 - An accurized and scoped version of the M 1903A3. While they are similar - they are not the same rifle.

Furthermore, the M1C - a scoped version of the M1 Garand - was put into service by the Army in June of 1944.
