Default Re: Russian vs German Infantry Weapons

Quality or quantity... who are these guys that set forth such idiotic maxims???

So the German made and mass produced Mauser is of better quality than the Russian Mosin Nagant? Or the Lee Enfield? Why? Because it is German?

The fact is that they are quite similar. As is the rest of the products. Well almost.

For me a quality product is something that I can use for years and years, and hand over to my sons when the time comes.

So the equipment that is prone to breakdown has little quality to me. In short the Russian equipment is of good quality. The long service lenght of some of this kit goes a long way to prove my point.
