How so moron since we Germans invented the assault rifle in WW2 as the STG-44 No, the Russians first invented the assault rifle in 1916 with the Federov Avtomat. Sorry, Mauser issued the first automatic rifles Flieger Selbslader Karbiner in 1915 as aircraft observers guns. These were followed by the experimental infantry Model 16 in 1916. The very first Mauser experimental rifles were tested in 1908... well before the Avtomat. (From the Encyclopedia of Firearms by Ian V. Hogg) and the last was Mauser's STG-45... which the Mauser team went to Spain and developed as the Cetme... before returning to Germany as HK improving the design into the G-3... which has led to both the incredible G-11 and new G-36. The G11 being so incredible that it's dead as a dodo without a single service user? Dropped for general Heer usage due to reunification costs, still in use by German SOFs. Also superior to anything in US Inventory... and that gun also originated in WW2 with Niploit caseless ammunition research!!! Rob p.s. Nice try |

Cheers, Richard Take a look he http://sys.heatgame.net/Public/News/hk-g36-strip.jpg Interestingly enough, the HK G-36 (which the XM-8 is derived from) actually uses the old AK-74 bayonets left over from the NVA stock! Had the HK G-11 rifle been adopted the evolutionary bayonet for it was going to be a ballistic tube-launched device. This was in the design stage when the hand-guard version, single rail model was testing. Rob |

use by German SOFs. Also superior to anything in US Inventory... and that gun also originated in WW2 with Niploit caseless ammunition research!!! Well stolen or captured German technology was 100 years ahead of US technology in 1945,so the term UFO nededed to be invented here. Germans do not need to play by the pragmatical rules of Anglos,they only need to remember time proven "Preussian tugenden". If they do it,75 years old scientific and cultural ice age would end and world could expreience another reneissance in Sciences,Culture and Arts. Such an outcome is beneficial to all human race,including Anglos. |

This is not to be mistaken for an unbiased slant. |
