The T31 Garand was John Garand's final rifle design, an experimental bullpup configuration aimed at creating a select-fire Garand with improved blast and recoil characteristics. It featured a unique pneumatic system initially, later redesigned to a short-stroke piston, and a 20-round magazine precursor to the M14. Despite its innovative design, including an integrated grenade launcher sight linked to the gas system, the project was abandoned upon Garand's retirement.

This review of the FN CAL, presented by the Arm&Gun host, highlights its aesthetic appeal as a 'grail' gun developed by FN Herstal.

The Springfield T20 project aimed to modernize the M1 Garand into a select-fire, magazine-fed rifle capable of mounting a scope and launching grenades. Early prototypes faced challenges with BAR magazine compatibility and full-auto control.

The FG-42 Type E was a revolutionary German paratrooper rifle developed by Rheinmetall, designed to combine the compactness of a Kar98k with the firepower of a light machine gun. It featured select-fire capability, firing from a closed bolt in semi-auto and an open bolt in full-auto for cooling, chambered in 8x57mm Mauser. Despite its advanced design, including a unique recoil buffer and side-mounted magazine, its complex and expensive production limited its numbers, making it a rare and highly sought-after historical firearm.
