Here is a 1939 photo of Pope John Paul II "The Great" presenting his rifle. Wonder what that rifle would be worth today if you could prove it was his???

A 19-year-old Karol Wojtyla, later Pope John Paul II (centre), is seen holding a rifle while performing 'present arms' in this July 1939 photo. Two months before the outbreak of the second world war, he attended a military training camp in western Ukraine, then eastern Poland.
