pardon the question from an ignorant squid

aren't ALL marines 0311? thought that was a given

or is the MOS 0311 different from the designation "rifleman" ?

different. we are all trained to be proficient, hence "every marine is a rifleman" but an 0311 infantry marine is a Rifleman - don't know if I cleared that up

USMC 0311 is your "basic rifleman", an 0331 is a machine gunner, 0341 is a mortarman. The motto is "every marine is a rifleman" is just that, a motto. Your MOS designates your actual job.
