I do not wish to take anything away from the guns listed in this article. They are all fine guns, but I will take exception to two of the author's statements.
The 94 Winchester was not the ultimate refinement of the design. The Savage 99 and the current production Browning BLR are both superior to the 94 Winchester in almost all respects.
It is not more then likely that someone that served in the US military, even in the US Army, ever carried a Model 1911 Colt, or even a handgun. Handguns were reserved for officers and some support personnel. The vast majority of soldiers carried rifles and never even touched a handgun. |

TO REMEMBER |
| A strong body makes the mind strong. As to the species of exercises, I advise the gun. While this gives moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprise, and independence to the mind. Games played with the ball and others of that nature, are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be the constant companion of your walks. — Thomas Jefferson, Encyclopedia of T. Jefferson, 318, Foley, Ed., reissued 1967. |
