Blakeman 0 Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 The STG probably shouldn't have been on there IMO. The nagant and arisaka are better candidates for a top 10 slot. I love Nagants...............damn fine rifle. Nagant is a pistol btw. The Mosin-Nagant is a rifle. Nagant Pistol t Mosin Nagant Rifle Not trying to be an ass, just hoping to steer people away from using the wrong terms. It could save you the headache if you order one on the phone and see another. The topload with the Garand and other rifles of those days were nice because of loading from the prone, but I agree that the list is a bit off. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Kriegerwithin 0 Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 I'm glad the Mauser made it up there. It really is a superb weapon. The Sturmgewehr is up there because it has to be. It gave birth to modern assault rifles like the AK47. In fact the AK47 is the little brother of the Sturmgewehr. They both have similar appearances but smaller caliber which makes the Sturmgewehr lose in the long run. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
