Best Answer

It was a VERY big war- so the answer depends on the the "they" is in your question. The US used 30-06 and 30 Carbine, the British used .303 Enfield, the Italians 6.5 and 7.35 Carcano, Germans 8mm Mauser, Russians 7.62x54R, and the Japanese 6.5 and 7.35 Arisaka. Ammo was a mix of full metal jacket, tracer, armor piecing and incendiary.
