A bolt gun in the right circumstances would work okay to give you an opportunity to upgrade with the enemy's weapons.

Ok I just skimmed through this nonsense...... and my conclusion is a Krag is cool and obviously effective... as displayed by Flave. Granted this wasn't battle but he knows a thing or two about battle rifles... ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/SNbrYFDS/IMG-1724.jpg) Now all this talk about Nagants and Tikka's is pure horse schit...... Me being a Mauser guy and being loyal to the design, choose 98 Mouser.... here is a parts gun I threw together, battle rifle was not on my mind when I put this together but on reflection I suspect this would work just fine. Peep sights , 5 round magazine, 338-06, laminate stock.... yep this would work.... ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/XvLbdP3Q/IMG-1772.jpg) Oh and Springfield..... naaa..... inferior copy of the Mouser Dude! 8mm way over penetrates...Germans proved it. I wouldn't quote JeffO if I was you.....  OUch...That hurt! Sorry buddy.... this place can get a little rough at times.... now atone and admit Mouser is best! I'm starting my shrine to Peter Paul von Mauser as I type this. Shrine or not, you are correct though. The M98 be the ticket. Hell, I'd even take m96/m38 if set up to my liking and enough 6.5 swede 140 gr.s for the duration. If the Germans weren't such evil fuucktards they would have won the war with that rifle.... No argument there. They blew it with Hitler. I've always thought the Austrian President missed a prescient moment to chuck that psycho paper hangar off the balcony of the villa they met at for the surrender of Austria. I have an 03 Springfield MKI based "scout rifle" that I've used for 95% of my hunting and shooting for the better part of 27 yrs. and its been a great firearm, spoiled me on old school bolt guns, but will replace it with m98 here soon. The 98 is just a better design, albeit a little heavier.

These would be last ditch for a gun fight. But getting hit with the hunting rounds used in em would suck ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/fLQHcRQc/20180726-081854.jpg)

I'd "fight" at a distance and you'd never hear me or see me... You’d likely shiiit and fall back in it too.

Bring stuff similar to these to a gunfight. Do something about the finish on the chromed mexican pimped out krink though. Too much bling..... LOL!!! ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/vBjrsQG1/20180215-180613.jpg)

I agree that this is a silly thread. Nobody has said the winner and you wouldn't think of it unless you had one. The fact that they have many moving parts aside, they have five rounds in their rotary mag and they come out very quickly. ![[Linked Image from i.ibb.co]](https://i.ibb.co/hdhpcyY/IMG-8883.jpg)

I'm not gonna read all 14 pages right now, but after ww1 it was said, (paraphrasing) The Americans built the best target rifle, the Germans built the best hunting rifle, and the Brits built the best battle rifle!

They liked the MG34, also. It's not inferior to much either then or now. ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/sgzH9cFJ/German-MG34-1.jpg)
