Hmmmm, Hungarian Danuvia 39M? |

No, not the Danuvia. It has a wooden stock that goes almost to the end of the barrel.
It is the Beretta Model 38 I am sure. The barrel protruding well past the end of the stock and the slight forward angle of the magazine clinches it. |

I think that could slay, but not lay. |

But we'll still never know what the infamous Airfix "British Paratroops" are supposed to be carrying! :)

Beretta model 38/42 The M38A has a distinctive barrel shroud Nope. It's a 38A. It has both the barrel shroud (magnify the picture) and the wood forestock extends beyond the magazine. |
