On a family vacation, I found out that my wife's great uncle recieved these metal's and the only known photo of him that is still in great condition. It is currently unknown what led to him recieving the medals pictured, however, I wanted to keep his patriotism alive and share this with everyone.

Welcome to the forum.
Interesting medals...

The "They did not Pass"...looks a lot like a WWI Victory Medal.
However I think that it is some sort of Fraternal Order medal / Masonic ...not military .

The "Small Bore Rifle" Medal...is an Army Marksmanship Badge..
This one is in "Expert"...the highest awarded.
The one pictured is later than the WWI period.

Not sure what the Eagle and Shield is.

Great looking Model 1917 "Enfield" Rifle as well.

Here is a .308 ruger percision rifle with an integrally suppressed barrel. The paint job is a cerekot kryptic cyote brown with a little more green. There is a Timmney, flat, trigger at .07 lbs. I have shot a piece of tannerite the size of a softball at 650 yrds with this rifle.

I'll take some better photos in the sun tomorrow, but I picked this ruger no 1 up from the smith today after getting the barrel cut from 26" to 21" and threaded for my new Rugged Alaskan 360.

He might still hold a grudge, that same rifle is the one that put him on that wall

My Sig P226 is a surplus DAO. The original grips were still cut for the decocking lever even though the DAO variant doesn't have one. Not a good look, IMO. Threw on a set that's actually designed for a non-decocker models and the whole thing looks a lot cleaner. While I was at it, replaced the factory 20 lb (or 21, according to some sources) hammer spring with a 17 lb from Wolff to actually get a usable trigger pull.

Old gun, old leather. S&W Model 17-2 and an H. Heiser holster.

Added a Ranger Point Precision Handguard and Henry wood stock to my Model X. It's got a good space cowboy thing going now.

Wow that's pretty creative. I'm not a fan of cowboy guns with tactical bs tacked onto them cu they are trying to be something they are not. But this is different. The whole thing is a wild remake sorta like cowboys and aliens or west world type or whatever

Interesting. Not necessarily my style, but I like that a lot better then the ones with an adapted AR butt and grip.
