OK, jorge.

Since you're going to make me say it I'll just say it.

I hate the English. Therefore, the 03A3 is better.

one must admit the 03 and 03a3 "borrowed certain aspects from the mauser
i would not want to admit how many springfields i own. more than one. am fond of them.
however,
the enfield was faster to fire
held more rounds
had adjustible to fit stocks
i have grown to love them
