The military services also purchased sporting arms for soldier's use through the morale and welfare activities offices. I've seen sporting rifles such as the Winchester Model 70, Remington 720, various shotguns, target pistols and revolvers marked as U.S. Property, including some for issue to soldiers from unit arms rooms during my service years. In addition, the OSS and other operators were issued both Colt Woodsman and High Standard .22 semi auto pistols with integral suppressors - they remained in inventory for many years (maybe still?), and I've shot both.
