Indeed! The Type 18 to be exact, but in the interests of keeping things moving along that doesn't matter so much. It was heavily based on the Fusil Gras mle 1874, which was a great guess too. This was the primary rifle of the Japanese in the First Sino-Japanese War, although the Type 22 was just beginning to replace it in 1894.

It could be a Mosin Nagant... although I am also inclined towards the Hanyang 88 or Arisaka 38. The stock looks more similar to the Mosin Nagant or the Hanyang (a copy of the Gewehr88). But the barrel looks very similar to the Hanyang.
RIP the dream. I took too long to respond and was wrong anyway.
Could it be an ASU-85?

I was repped for being right, so here comes the next one:

Nobody popping this? Okay.
Krag–Jørgensen m/1892 rifle. While these break of century rifles look all the same, this is still one of most well known examples...
Indeed it is!

A piece of something famous. I want, of course, the device itself, now where it was installed
Looks like some kind of a targeting device for bombers...
Seems a bit small for a Norden bombsight
Because it is not Norden bombsight.
I won't be asking specific model, just series, type of device and where was it installed will be enough.

Its the Bombsight of a Ju87 Stuka... but I sadly can`t find the correct Name of it.
Hilariously, we've gotten into a strange situation where you're partially correct. Keep looking though...

I think it's a Luftwaffe Revi C12 D gunsight - looks to be usually installed top centre right of the control panel. Used in Stuka and fighters in general I think (didn't read too much about it).
Absolutely correct. Revi C/12D reflector gunsight. Revi C/ series were almost ubiqutous in Luftwaffe, as they were used on almost all aircraft with fixed forward armament prior and during WWII. I'd accept more vague answer than that, as pinning down specific model is almost impossible.
Morifea was partially correct because C/12C model was installed on most Ju-87, and it was used in dive bombing run to assist with aiming the bomb. BU the answer was too vague to be accepted.
