mr browning was an outstanding designer but that he will have make the mauser98 rifle sometimes, I am doubt. its fact that the brits have had the heigth with the hammerless double gun, after they are not able to build a good bolt action(yes i know the enfield works) self loading pistol, self loading rifle, etc.the enfield assault rifle was such a wrong construction, all going to heckler&koch in oberstdorf in the 90 for reworking but it was not 100% good after this. I dont say the brits are stupid but the great time is gone, this happen anywhere, anytime.the american springfield rifle with cartridge was a copy from the mauser 98!!!. the garand self loading rifle was good in the first view but the real new gun was the german sturmgewehr44. the russians understand the concept and copy this with the kalashnikow. us army like to safe the garand system after ww2 with the m14, its was not a success. and the m16? its now clear that the time for this gun is gone. two possiblitys: heckler&koch build a new gun for the american forces or they making a new action fiting in the old m16 case. in any way is heckler&koch the best modern gun maker on this planet and this firm is mauser since ww2. the new american rifle cartrige will be a modern version of the good old 7x57 mauser, brits and american love it since they know it first time in the south africa and cuba.

on things like blaser rifle s you can see what democracy have made with germany

last point: pay a gunmaker anywhere 100000$ for making a gun, he will do a good work
