I always loved bolt-action rifles. I have a Type 99 Japanese rifle and VZ-24 Mauser. I enjoy shooting these weapons( the Japanese rifle when I can afford the rounds).
With that said, which is your favorite Bolt-Action rifle of World War Two?

I’m surprised the jet has recieved as much love as it has. :? Whenever I was writing down aircraft, I nearly left out the Me-262 due to a short combat record. But seeing the love people have for the aircraft, I’m glad I added it.
I thought to myself, isn’t this not the most basic of questions. The question deserves a poll.
Have a good holiday season!
If Germany had captured Leningrad in 1941 and had not followed up with Moscow, the capture of the city would have helped the 1942 offensive.
If that offensive failed to destroy the U.S.S.R, Leningrad would have become an strong German defensive postion. The Russians could not leave such a strong postion flanking the push into eastern Poland.
With the terrain around Leningrad, a defenders dreamland, the war in the east could very well become static war. Germany would have also been able to use Leningrad as a port to supply Army Group North. Stalin would have become as fixed on capturing Leningrad as Hitler was Stalingrad.
With Leningrad in German hands I believe the war last into 1946.
We recently had a large paintball match nearly 10 players on each team.
In a fit of rage I did a Charge at a few guys, caught them off guard and got all three. I did suffer a few wounds. But it was awesome.
Why did it take myself a over a year to find this post. LOLOL :?
Once a year my friends and I get together and play LOTR Risk. The game is fun. I think it’s best played with 5-6 players. The map is vast.
Napoleon In Europe is like Axis and Allies with plastic peices and area movement and stuff cept way better
though its out of print now you can still get it on ebay if you have the cash
It is way cool especially if you like the napoleonic era
I have never heard of this game. Is the game worth the cash?
1. Axis & Allies
2. LOTR Risk
3. Age of Empires
4. CHESS
5. Monopoly
6. sequence
I love the old school board game.
Fueling additional new ships would raise issues. The Italian Fleet was already near the bottom of the oil priorities list.
Still that leaves Malta to be dealt with in the Mediteranean.
Had the A-Bomb not been invented and the U.S had to finish Japan with a invasion of the Home Islands, how would this effect Soviet-Western relations.
Just when I think I run out of poll questions….
Have a good weekend, friends.
The Bf110 did find some sucess as a low level fighter/bomber in 1940. Later years the bf110, under the mask of darkness, found itself not the prey but a preditor of of R.A.F bombers.
Yet,I would hate to find myself behind the controls of a 110 and have Spitfires attacking.
I wonder just how many ships were sunk in World War Two?
I believe there is little chance that any large French Warships could reach German coastal water with skeleton crews operating. Italian ports seem the best option.
If Germany could get these vessels into the open oceans the french lack of heavy armor would had little effect concerning the war effort. The German were in the business of commerce raiding- the best way to ‘bring England to it’s knees’. Even with the full weight of the French fleet at Germany’s control; Germany was in no postion take the Royal Navy on directly.
I think the French Battleships( Battle-Cruisers) would make great commerce raiders.
Under Italian contol the French ships would only be targets for Malta based subs and aircraft.
Once again I was bored and asking myself questions.
Atlantis was at remote Kerguelen Island, in the Indian Ocean. There they did maintenance and replenished their water supplies. The crew suffered its first fatality when a sailor fell while painting the funnel. He was buried in what is sometimes referred to as “the most southerly German soldier’s grave”
