Bloke on the Range

15m
Moving onwards with the Mad Minute series, here's another one that went faster than the Bloke thought realistic, even though compared to the No.4 and the K31 it was quite a bit slower. It was effing hard work though working the bolt on that Mauser 98k that quickly, since it's not really optimised for "fast".
Also contains a little discussion about German doctrine compared to British and Swiss doctrine, and some ergonomic considerations with respect to the Lee-Enfield No.4 and the Swiss K31.
