This Q&A session with Bloke on the Range and Forgotten Weapons delves into early smokeless powder rifles, focusing on the Swiss Schmidt Rubin 1889 as a superior design due to its 12-round magazine and straight-pull action, which significantly increased the rate of aimed fire compared to contemporaries like the Lebel and Gewehr 88. The discussion also touches on Swiss firearm laws, museum recommendations, and comparisons between various historical military rifles.
