I have a 10mm BEF squaddie walking with a Boys ATR lookalike (it's a Minifigs Bren gun, but the barrel's way too long...), but I don't know of a good identifiable German ATR gunner walking/standing/kneeling. I don't like prone figures for Skirmish games (CoC specifically). Can anyone advise on a suitable figure or lookalike?
I'm not entirely certain what early WWII German ATRs looked like - from what I've seen they're not nearly as distinctive as the Boys...

Not massively dissimilar to an ordinary rifle, just a bit "stretched" looking and with a carry handle. later models have the two clips either side of the gun for easy reloading...
If no one can suggest a suitable "standing pose" figure any rifleman with a bit of a barrel lengthen might do? Drill out end of rifle, glue in fuse wire or a big paint brush bristle...
Hmm... A long rifle with a skinny stock, basically. I have a couple of ideas from those pics, from minis I already have. Thanks for that...

I assume you don't want to go for GR226 because it is prone?

Correct, yes. I don't like prone figures for single-figure skirmish scale basing, they just don't fit, either visually or physically...
