The fact that this gun saw active service for over 100 years proves how good it was. Reliable in all weather conditions, fastest bolt action rifle, incredibly accurate, 10 round magazine to reduce reloads, low maintenance, I genuinely think itās the best bolt action service rifle ever made, it might not be the best in every category but itās one of the best in every category, and in some it is the best.

The story about the BEF at Mons being mistaken for having huge numbers of machine guns is mostly legend. In reality, each British infantry battalion in 1914 only had two machine guns, but the men were trained to fire their LeeāEnfield rifles quickly and accurately. This emphasis on rapid musketry came from lessons drawn by British observers during the Russo-Japanese War, where machine guns had shown their potential. Musketry regulations demanded 15 rounds per minute in rapid fire, with the realistic aim of sustaining about 10 accurate shots. This disciplined, sustained rifle fire was unusual for the time and inflicted heavy losses on the Germans as they advanced.
British newspapers later exaggerated this into the claim that German officers believed they were facing masses of machine guns. Modern historians havenāt found much German evidence to back that up. What we can say is that German troops werenāt used to such intense rifle fire and sometimes mistook it for automatic weapons, but the broader āmachine gun mythā was really a patriotic embellishment that grew after the battle.

Two of my Great Grand Uncles fought in WW1. We still have that exact gun in a metal military box somewhere in my Uncleās house. Holy the gun won them 12 medals for how quick they could fire the thing, it was so fast that a magazine cartridge lasted a few seconds! Of course we couldnāt fire the gun though due to it has no bullets in it and the British military didnāt want World War One veterans going back home and killing people recklessly. They won the medal of honour, bravery, loyalty, best soldier, and many more! One of them won the medal of best soldier because he was seen by a high ranking officer, and saved his life

I saw a documentary with a WW1 German soldier talking about the Australians, he said said they were big and tough and could shoot very well, meanwhile they were mostly skinny half starved kids from the slums. They were terrified of the Australians because they would tell them that they were going to have smoko and then attack. He then said they would go somewhere else and attack them. They were also terrified of being taken prisoner as they had been told they would get tortured badly. He ended up getting captured by the Australians and instead of being beaten and tortured he was given a cigarette, a cup of tea and a bully beef sandwich. He said getting captured wasn't too bad at all.
