I do not wish to take anything away from the guns listed in this article. They are all fine guns, but I will take exception to two of the author's statements.
The 94 Winchester was not the ultimate refinement of the design. The Savage 99 and the current production Browning BLR are both superior to the 94 Winchester in almost all respects.
It is not more then likely that someone that served in the US military, even in the US Army, ever carried a Model 1911 Colt, or even a handgun. Handguns were reserved for officers and some support personnel. The vast majority of soldiers carried rifles and never even touched a handgun. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
There are other things so clearly out of the power of Congress, that the bare recital of them is sufficient, I mean the "...rights of bearing arms for defence, or for killing game..." These things seem to have been inserted among their objections, merely to induce the ignorant to believe that Congress would have a power over such objects and to infer from their being refused a place in the Constitution, their intention to exercise that power to the oppression of the people. —ALEXANDER WHITE (1787) |
