RE: BEST SERVICE RIFLE EVER, WHICH IS IT?
Definately not the M16. Actually I would have to go with either the 96 or 98 Mauser.
|
RE: BEST SERVICE RIFLE EVER, WHICH IS IT?
The SMLE - hands down!
|
RE: BEST SERVICE RIFLE EVER, WHICH IS IT?
If I had to go into combat today, I'd take the M16, but as far as best in it's day, I'd go with the M1 Garand.

The Garand.The Winchester may have won the west but the Garand won the war.

RE: BEST SERVICE RIFLE EVER, WHICH IS IT?
i wold have to go with the M1-GARAND.
|
RE: BEST SERVICE RIFLE EVER, WHICH IS IT?
For modern day I have to admit that I like the M-16 with the M-203 attachment. A well rounded set up that is!

RE: BEST SERVICE RIFLE EVER, WHICH IS IT?
Bolt action-the SMLE. Semi-auto, the M-14, which is truly an improvement over the M1!
Keep yore powder dry!! |
RE: BEST SERVICE RIFLE EVER, WHICH IS IT?
Three service rifles that changed the world: Enfield 3-band musket, Enfield .303 (either SMLE & its offspring), and the Mauser 98. The service rifle with best publicity & promotion: M1 Garand (Hollywood made it famous). The most under rated service rifle: Soviet Mosin Nagant 91/30. The most feared service rifle/carbine/assault rifle: anything in 7.62x39 especially anything copying Comrade Kalashnikov.
My all time favorite (it saved my butt more than once): M16A1 & A2 Heaven is best viewed from a deer stand at sunrise in the forest |
