@MrBeast758 Unless the 30-06 is shot from the Garand, which has less kick than the Mauser due to it being heavier, and the gas system dampens the recoil.
@MrBeast758 Well the G-43 had a copy of the SVT-40's gas system, which was already known for having high recoil, and that was for the 7.62 round the SVT fired, let alone the 8mm. The Garand had the softest recoil of any semi-automatic, and bolt action, since bolt actions had no gas systems and kicked harder also because they were usually lighter than semi autos.
@sinofallsinners The Carbine is a gruesome round, weak, blunt nosed bullet, expands all its energy in the target, resulting in a 12 inch wide cavity, and 6 inches of penetration, but it only does this great damage at a range out to about 50 yards.
The 7.62 of course has much better range, power, and penetration, since its a pointed rifle bullet, but in close to medium range combat, the Carbine is a great one shot kill weapon. I take down deer in a single hit at 0-50 yards with the Carbine.
.... Um, because the Americans werent on the Russian Front, and the SVT is better than the G41 and 43s.
Interesting to note, is that once the Americans were on the Western Front, the Germans began scavenging M1s when they could. swapping their Gewehr 43s for them.
the gewher was better, somewhat more accurate, reliable, and the fact that it shot the most powerful normal rifle round in the war, the 8mm mauser. it was like the 8mm mauser (7.92x57), then the 7.62x54R round the svt 40 and mosin nagant shot, then the
ROFL, not even, I've owned both rifles for over 15 years, so I know what I'm saying, the G43 isnt as accurate as the M1, the M1 has a highly refined barrel design, I've shot both at 500 yards, and the M1 hit the target board 5 out of 8 times, and the Gewehr hit it 4 times out of 10. As far as reliability, the M1 wins hands down, the G43 has a tendency to jam when the spent shell is extracted, it gets caught on the lip of the receiver and has to be pried loose with your hands.
In addition, the bolt and extractor is operated by a relatively weak spring which often jams up when dirt get caught in it, and the bolt must be taken apart so the spring can be taken out and cleaned.
As far as accuracy, the G43 was designed with a conventinal barrel, it wasnt as refined and precise as the M1's, it was made in a hurry, while the M1's was made with care and time and tons of testing. The G43 was never mass produced, for every 1 G43 produced by Germany, the Americans made 20 M1s
There are many reports from German commanders in the firld reporting that, the G43, while a semi-auto design, still wasnt as good or as robust as the American M1 rifles, and were seen scavenging M1s and swapping the G43s and K98s for them whenever possible in the latter part of the ETO campaign..
The sights on the M1 are also simpler than the G43, the M1's peep sights are less complicated than the G43's since lining up a targe is quicker, while looking through the peep hole, you simply line up the front post with the target, 2 steps, while the G43's leaf sights, you have to line up the rear notch, with the front post, THEN with the target, thus, its more complicated and takes that much longer.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
better than the garand ...russia make better weapons then anyone ...wouldnt worry about plastic overpriced us junk it sucks and has a life span of zero
In this case the best of the three is the M1 Garand. it actually had a long military life and was and is an exceptional rife. The SVT40 is also a great rifle but the reality is it wasn't fielded as long as the Garand. The problem with the SVT40 was the Russians had very little training on how to clean and maintain these rifles thus they were abandoned for the idiot proof Mosin Nagant. The Gewehr 43 had a rather short service. And was noted as being a fragile rifle. The StG 44 is a better rifle.
@SLVRFOX88 SVT was a very complicated design.. it wasnt thrown away buddy.. those were only issued to high ranking soldiers because the design was rock hard to produce
@Pawnbroker00@Pawnbroker00 Of course it wasn't thrown away. The original intent of the SVT40 was to replace the Mosin Nagant. In fact Mosin production stopped/slowed for the purpose to only produce the SVT40. But after realizing the time needed to produce the rifle and the fact it was not the best standard issue weapon for the poorly trained solider at that time. Mosin production began again and SVT40 production reduced.
@SLVRFOX88 just a side note it wasnt really the cleaning and mainaining of the SVT-40 that caused problems...it was the gas block design which requires tunig for different loads and bullet weights...which on the field you would not of had the parts to fix it..or slove the problem...BUT THE SVT-40 is my favorite gun ever
you obviously know jack shit about weapons..Theres no plastic on am M1 dumbass..
The russians copied the design for the AK-47 from the Germans.look up the SG-44 from WW2..and see the proof..So since to think a rifle that has less range and accuarcy is a better weapon...well then your an idiot..And millions of dead enemies of the USA can atest that our "PLASIC" weapons work pretty damn well..
The Russians obviously copied the assault rifle idea from the Germans, but mechanically, the AK-47 and STG44 have little in common. You can say the Russians copied the idea, but not the STG44 itself.
@esh325 ironically, the russians were the first ones to develop the concept of the assault rifle with the federov avtomat 1916, but it wasn't successful. It was before it's time
ur just mad because the us can raid wherever the hell you live and you would be on your knees begging them not to kill you with those "plastic" guns, go suck a cock u prick
Have a Russian AK-47 an 74. Both as the Russians issue them now, and guess what? There is more plastic on my AKs than my ARs. My ARs have metal hand guards, aluminum stock tubes. Only the slider and grip are not metal. An my AR go boom every time! But so do my AK's :)
the real idea that allowed the full auto assault rifle to be built was the intermediate length cartridge... contrary to uneducated belief, the 8mm cartridge that the mauser bolt action fires is a much longer cartridge than that 8mm (shortened) cartridge fired by the StG/MP 44
The STG45 had a roller delayed blowback system. neither the STG44 or AK-47 used this system. Both rifles used a long stroke piston operation, but so did many rifles before it.
i was talking to someone about the russians dumbass. they would kill you if you retreated i never found that out in a video game i found that out by learning history, why do you reply to month old comments really?
idk i can't say your wrong cause i don't know myself i will have to say semis were just made to have the same accuracy as bolt but to have higher rate of fire so ammo conserveing really dose'nt matter with any gun the person whose shooting is going to want to put alot of lead out if alot of men r coming at him so idk good question i would like to know whats the point of having small magazines when its possible to have huge ones?
I'v always wondered why SKS rifles and such had smaller magazines, and it finally hit me! These rifles were meant to be fielded to VERY large armies, and with simi-automatic fire it would be too easy to deplete ammunition if each rifle had a higher cap magazine! This forces the individual soldier to conserve ammo more and also strive for higher accuracy! what do you guys think?
I hav US M 14 (sivilian vergion) and SVT 40...Bolth ws scope. RUSSIAN mach mor accyr,relaibel, camfortable even littlt lighter...7,62-54 RU mor poverful than .308 WIN (old NATO)...
What? That's a load of shit. The SVT-40 was known to suffer from vertical shot dispersion, so only 50,000 or so sniper variants were produced out of 1.6 million total. Both cartridges are almost ballistically identical, and both are very reliable rifles. The only thing your right about is the weight factor. In any case, they're all great rifles. It's all about personal preference.
why cant the us and russia become allies? then we can live in peace and create the most awesome weapons on the face of the earth. if any one decides to mess with us they would be obliterated.
Because the Germans concentrated a lot of their strength on Russia, while most of European nations were under German control. You know what that means? More Germans obviously mean more German casualties. Meaning, your comment means nothing. Not to be an ass or anything, but how many Russian casualties were there? Point being: It was a bloody, shitty war.
Russia lost over 20million people (almost 1/3 of their population). They suffered the worst along side the Germans (who were nearly annihilated by the Soviets at the Battle for Berlin)
The US owned all in the Pacific though. We produced the largest number of enemy casualties in the Pacific theater.
You said nothing dumb. But then, I think that the AK47 is about the best. I do not care too much about the millions that died. I do care about a few 7.62-39 into a belly and crotch. That hurts.
the united states and the SOVIET UNION (not just russia) both had just about even effectiveness in WWII... war is not just about how many people you kill, its about how strategic the kills are... russia destroyed germany with our help, and after we dropped the atomic bomb on hiroshima, USSR declared war on japan... that is what brought about japans surrender...
The U,S, had to cross the sea before we fought. The USSR could drive. Do not forget the lend lease program. The USSR did a bunch of it's driving into battle in Chevy trucks. Without the U.S's production and the West opening a 2nd front in the ETO and the US Army Air Corps day light bombing of German production. Without all these things the Soviets may have never gotten out from under the Germans.
Its best to remember though that the technology on the stg 44 wasn't advanced, indeed the action didn't need to tolerate the stresses that an m1 would. But its the german researchers who recognised the need for an intermediate rifle to replace long rifles, carbines and submachine guns all in one. The only thing properly advanced was its layout, a rifle, but with a seperate pistol grip and stock like a subgun.
United States Rifle, Caliber .30, M1 semi-automatic rifle, designed in 1932 by John C.Garand, and put into active service in 1936.
The standard model weighed 4.31 kilograms, and was 1,107.4 centimeters long. It was gas-operated firing the 7.62x63mm reaching velocities of 853 m/s the M1 was effective out to 457 meters and beyond in well-trained hands. The rifle saw service until 1963 and is still produced in small numbers by varying arms companies in small numbers in 7.62x51 NATO.
Very limited American marksmen shot the M1 Garand with success out to 800 yards and even fewer out to 1200 yards (the latter done with the M1C and M1D)
The Garands accuracy drops when the round gets out to about 550 yards but most of the combat the rifle saw was usually within 375 yards. Marksmanship is where most people in the USMC get off, at the 500 yard line, they can't do it very easily even if they pass that then there's 800 yards I can barely do it with a Springfield.
The Communists lost because a true communist government cannot function effectively for a long period of time. Its amazing that North Korea and Cuba have stayed as communist countries. China and Vietnam are odd they are communist yet they embrace capitalism, that puzzles me 0.o
No goverment is truely " Communist " I've had numerous discussions with people and friends and well mostly we can come up with they are a spin off of a Facist goverment. The only thing Communist is the control of trade but not the goverment itself.
the stg wasn't that great, it was the concept that rocked the world. Don't forget the M1 carbine fired the intermediate round, it just wasn't full auto. In 1950, a simple re-adjustment to the sear made it fully automatic. So The germans didn't invent the concept but technically they produced the first assualt rifle as the M1 Carbine in ww2 wasn't fully automatic.
millions there is no rifle even close there is a discorey series on the top ten combat rifles the ak was voted #1 and all the old military farts said if they could onl take one rifle into combat it would be an ak because it is simple reliable hell pratically indestructable
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
many things are copied from the germans in ww2. ak-47 wasnt first major inovation,the STG was.kalasnikov just made a better stg 44. everyone points out.uthe germans copied G43 from svt 40 u they copied that and that and that.. , the copied just like 3or4 combat things( riflestanks),but the rest of the world copied a looot more, at the end of the war germans even had IR scopes,and the first jet engine. and what about medical foundings. moderen rpg isn.t based on bazooka, it s based on panzerfaust
I won't dispute the fact that they had superior technology. They did however have a messed up leader. If not for Hitler fuck ups the Germans could've eaisly won the war. Hitlermadea huge mistake attaking the Soviet Union.
more accurate then the m1, where in satan's asshole did you hear that? are you making shit up to keep the k98 in game with the m1? yeah the k98 was a good BOLT ACTION rifle. but the m1 was a superb semi-auto rifle, therefore it was more advanced and by no shadow of a doubt BETTER.
It wasn't more accurate many bolt action rifles are more accurate then simi auto rifles. The effective range of a K98 is 547yd + with no scope (thats just effective range) vise-vera a m1 is on 500 yd. The K98's effective range with a scope is 875+yd and thats just effective range, AND..the K98 is still used today as a sniper rifle unlike the m1.
I agree. absolute best rifle of the war. However, the StG was the big "holy crap this is something completely new" weapon. While reliability wise it wasn't very good, the IDEA of an automatic rifle was the important thing. Look at how many assault rifles there are today. While most aren't descended from the StG in any way, they still drew the same concept; man portable, mid range automatic fire. The M1 while great, didn't last too long after the war. It became the M14 and that's where it stopped
I do have to note though that the U.S. did have something that could have been the first assualt rifle had thene tactical thinking been different
the M1 Carbine was the first small arm to fire an Intermediate cartridge. Had it had a selector switch for full auto it would have been an assualt rifle (they did this in Korea 1950 with the M2 carbine). But the idea was " a smaller more portable rifle then the M1 but better range then the .45 pistol. had it been SMG rather then pistol...
yep. The germans just managed to get it out first. In the end, great concept that revolutionized weapons and tactics, but still not a really reliable gun. And the germans needed reliability, not novelty.
I don't recall the STG having bad reliability. The AK-47 obviously had some STG44 influence, the idea more then mechanics though. The M16 took the idea of a two pieced reciever from the
Well, it wasn't a horribly unreliable weapon, but most or its parts were precisely machined and dirt, grit, mud, even the cold weather of Russia caused it to jam up
dude you gotta get over those half-assed antics. Vietnam is in the past, today, actually the m-16A2 doesn't jam. after you put 2,000 rounds through it, you have to clean it because of all the carbon deposits building up on the chamber. This is caused by its direct impingement gas system. If I were in the countryside, I would take an M-16 over an ak-47. If I am clearing out rooms, I would want in ak.
The reason for the revolution of 1991 was because the fag Yeltsin was selling his country to America and in America there were the same commercials as there are now about Africa "each year a child dies, support us" That was in the 90's and Russians got tired of that bullshit and revolted. After that Putin was elected, flipped off the Americans and restored Russia to a superpower. I don't think anyone won, because if Russia continued, then we wouldn't be talking right now, we'd be dust.
Have you seen the latest Russian equipment? And it's not the ones you see on the news that the previous Iraqi army used. When you see what Russian military technology is you will be shocked, I was when I found it. If you want, I can tell you some, just tell me when you reply to this, which I am sure you will seeing as you think that America is the best country in the world and would do anything to argue someone who thinks otherwise down.
its good it does impress me..the russians are good with weapons but there economy and society are not on our par and an army is not just weapons its soldiers tactics and other technolgy
Russians make some surprisingly good weaponry..i must give credit where its due..and god luck to russia i hope we have a friendly economic and cultural competition..why must we necessarilly meet on a battlefield ..why is that necesarry?
what an idiot initially 40 YEARS ago..thats right 40 years ago there was a jamming problem which was corrected by changing the powder mixture and proper cleaning kits being issued/some varients are better than others but even a standard m4 really doesnt jam that much worse than other rifles certainly better than the british-SA80
here put this in the youtbe search engine learn something(what a fucking fool)
the hk416 is a radical improvement however,check out some of the documentaries on youtube..google hk416 into the youtube earch engine the hk416 is a truelly remarkable weapon
The SWT40 are the best classic SL-Rifle ever!

idk i can't say your wrong cause i don't know myself i will have to say semis were just made to have the same accuracy as bolt but to have higher rate of fire so ammo conserveing really dose'nt matter with any gun the person whose shooting is going to want to put alot of lead out if alot of men r coming at him so idk good question i would like to know whats the point of having small magazines when its possible to have huge ones?
IRISHMOBSTER55 2 years ago
I'v always wondered why SKS rifles and such had smaller magazines, and it finally hit me! These rifles were meant to be fielded to VERY large armies, and with simi-automatic fire it would be too easy to deplete ammunition if each rifle had a higher cap magazine! This forces the individual soldier to conserve ammo more and also strive for higher accuracy! what do you guys think?

DsBt256 2 years ago
What? That's a load of shit. The SVT-40 was known to suffer from vertical shot dispersion, so only 50,000 or so sniper variants were produced out of 1.6 million total. Both cartridges are almost ballistically identical, and both are very reliable rifles. The only thing your right about is the weight factor. In any case, they're all great rifles. It's all about personal preference.

The Russians accounted for over 85% of all the Germans killed in the war. The US only accounted for roughly 4%
Goodspittin 3 years ago
You know why?
Because the Germans concentrated a lot of their strength on Russia, while most of European nations were under German control. You know what that means? More Germans obviously mean more German casualties. Meaning, your comment means nothing. Not to be an ass or anything, but how many Russian casualties were there? Point being: It was a bloody, shitty war.
GUNxSPECTRE 3 years ago
Russia lost over 20million people (almost 1/3 of their population). They suffered the worst along side the Germans (who were nearly annihilated by the Soviets at the Battle for Berlin)
The US owned all in the Pacific though. We produced the largest number of enemy casualties in the Pacific theater.

the united states and the SOVIET UNION (not just russia) both had just about even effectiveness in WWII... war is not just about how many people you kill, its about how strategic the kills are... russia destroyed germany with our help, and after we dropped the atomic bomb on hiroshima, USSR declared war on japan... that is what brought about japans surrender...
blssnare 3 years ago 2
The U,S, had to cross the sea before we fought. The USSR could drive. Do not forget the lend lease program. The USSR did a bunch of it's driving into battle in Chevy trucks. Without the U.S's production and the West opening a 2nd front in the ETO and the US Army Air Corps day light bombing of German production. Without all these things the Soviets may have never gotten out from under the Germans.

Kuznez66ju 3 years ago 2
Its best to remember though that the technology on the stg 44 wasn't advanced, indeed the action didn't need to tolerate the stresses that an m1 would. But its the german researchers who recognised the need for an intermediate rifle to replace long rifles, carbines and submachine guns all in one. The only thing properly advanced was its layout, a rifle, but with a seperate pistol grip and stock like a subgun.

United States Rifle, Caliber .30, M1 semi-automatic rifle, designed in 1932 by John C.Garand, and put into active service in 1936.
The standard model weighed 4.31 kilograms, and was 1,107.4 centimeters long. It was gas-operated firing the 7.62x63mm reaching velocities of 853 m/s the M1 was effective out to 457 meters and beyond in well-trained hands. The rifle saw service until 1963 and is still produced in small numbers by varying arms companies in small numbers in 7.62x51 NATO.

Very limited American marksmen shot the M1 Garand with success out to 800 yards and even fewer out to 1200 yards (the latter done with the M1C and M1D)
GordonALWAYS 3 years ago
The Garands accuracy drops when the round gets out to about 550 yards but most of the combat the rifle saw was usually within 375 yards. Marksmanship is where most people in the USMC get off, at the 500 yard line, they can't do it very easily even if they pass that then there's 800 yards I can barely do it with a Springfield.

fatbuu3800 3 years ago
the stg wasn't that great, it was the concept that rocked the world. Don't forget the M1 carbine fired the intermediate round, it just wasn't full auto. In 1950, a simple re-adjustment to the sear made it fully automatic. So The germans didn't invent the concept but technically they produced the first assualt rifle as the M1 Carbine in ww2 wasn't fully automatic.
Alexn1067 3 years ago
the ak47 was the major inovation

no, the K98 was a very good rifle, probably the best bolt action rifle at the time. More accurate then the M1.
matto0o15 3 years ago
more accurate then the m1, where in satan's asshole did you hear that? are you making shit up to keep the k98 in game with the m1? yeah the k98 was a good BOLT ACTION rifle. but the m1 was a superb semi-auto rifle, therefore it was more advanced and by no shadow of a doubt BETTER.
Alexn1067 3 years ago
It wasn't more accurate many bolt action rifles are more accurate then simi auto rifles. The effective range of a K98 is 547yd + with no scope (thats just effective range) vise-vera a m1 is on 500 yd. The K98's effective range with a scope is 875+yd and thats just effective range, AND..the K98 is still used today as a sniper rifle unlike the m1.
matto0o15 3 years ago
I agree. absolute best rifle of the war. However, the StG was the big "holy crap this is something completely new" weapon. While reliability wise it wasn't very good, the IDEA of an automatic rifle was the important thing. Look at how many assault rifles there are today. While most aren't descended from the StG in any way, they still drew the same concept; man portable, mid range automatic fire. The M1 while great, didn't last too long after the war. It became the M14 and that's where it stopped
TwilightFox109 2 years ago
very true,
I do have to note though that the U.S. did have something that could have been the first assualt rifle had thene tactical thinking been different
the M1 Carbine was the first small arm to fire an Intermediate cartridge. Had it had a selector switch for full auto it would have been an assualt rifle (they did this in Korea 1950 with the M2 carbine). But the idea was " a smaller more portable rifle then the M1 but better range then the .45 pistol. had it been SMG rather then pistol...
Alexn1067 2 years ago
yep. The germans just managed to get it out first. In the end, great concept that revolutionized weapons and tactics, but still not a really reliable gun. And the germans needed reliability, not novelty.
TwilightFox109 2 years ago
I don't recall the STG having bad reliability. The AK-47 obviously had some STG44 influence, the idea more then mechanics though. The M16 took the idea of a two pieced reciever from the
STG44 probably.
esh325 2 years ago
Well, it wasn't a horribly unreliable weapon, but most or its parts were precisely machined and dirt, grit, mud, even the cold weather of Russia caused it to jam up

dude you gotta get over those half-assed antics. Vietnam is in the past, today, actually the m-16A2 doesn't jam. after you put 2,000 rounds through it, you have to clean it because of all the carbon deposits building up on the chamber. This is caused by its direct impingement gas system. If I were in the countryside, I would take an M-16 over an ak-47. If I am clearing out rooms, I would want in ak.

The reason for the revolution of 1991 was because the fag Yeltsin was selling his country to America and in America there were the same commercials as there are now about Africa "each year a child dies, support us" That was in the 90's and Russians got tired of that bullshit and revolted. After that Putin was elected, flipped off the Americans and restored Russia to a superpower.
