Which of these would you like to fight with if you fought in ww1

Would you rather fight with the Springfield M1903, G88, G98, if you fought in ww1. I want to learn about these Rifles. If these are uncomparible tell me . Like I said I don"t know enough about these so tell me info.

 

A decent Mk III* SMLE with telescopic sights or the P14

 

MKIII Enfields are awesome!!!! I always wanted one.

 

I don't know too much about rifles but I believe the Springfield was a good sniper's rifle but a little delicate for trench warfare.

The SMLE is usually considered the best WW1 rifle; I don't say that because I am British but because it was the best all-rounder - rugged, reliable, a good bolt action so a high rate of fire and with telescopic sights, a competent sniper's weapon. It was used throughout WW2 and some of the Kuwaitis still had them in the Gulf War of 1991.

When the British Expeditionary Force halted the German advance (temporarily) at Mons on August 23rd 1914, their rate of fire was so high that the Germans greatly over-estimated the number of machine guns in use.
