    the others i wouldnt thank you for.
    What makes it a "rifleman's rifle?" exactly?

    Basically an American unlicensed copy of a Mauser 1898? The Mauser K98 and its derivatives are the most produced rifle of all time. There are more people not breathing today because of the K98 / K98k than there are Springfield 1903s. I don't know, to me it carries a bit more pedigree as a "rifleman's rifle".

    Not having a go, just saying.
