What rifles are used to guard the tomb of the unkown soldier?

The current rifle model carried by Tomb Guards is the M14 (used since 1957). There have been three types of weapons used to guard the tomb. The other two rifles were the M1 Garand (used by the US Army 1936-1957) and the M1903 Springfield Rifle (used by the US Army 1903 - 1936). The Tomb Guards carry fully-functional weapons kept in as close to perfect condition as possible.

Which defender's rifle is in a display case inside the shrine?

The defender's rifle in question is likely a reference to the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington National Cemetery in the United States. The rifle, known as a "Tomb Guard Rifle," is a ceremonial weapon used by sentinels who guard the Tomb 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. It is a symbol of honor and respect for all unidentified and fallen soldiers. The rifle is displayed in a glass case as part of the Changing of the Guard ceremony, which is a highly revered tradition.
