I like the direction this is headed, I see a correlation between zombies and the person running the furnaces at Springfield again I do not make excuses for Springfield's behavior with the furnaces and quality control, and I said hiring J. Browning may not have worked out for Springfield, I believe he would have fired most of them.
Zombies/Democrats? The problem with Springfield rifles were found after being issued. Springfield could not trace a failure to a week, day or hour, minute or second, some failed some did not? and they knew nothing about apples, they did not make test billets along with the receivers to test for brittle, yield pressure and Resistance to being crushed or bending.
And there was Springfield after the war fixing old problems and not being asked to participate in building new designs, it goes back to Springfield not being able to find the Patent office. John Browning, Smith and Wesson and other successful manufactures of arms spent as much if not more time at the patent office as they did at their plant.
I do not know how long it took Springfield to look at something before someone told them what was wrong, they started double heat treat in 1918, they found nickel steel in 1927,, 13 years after it was used in the P14, that would be 31 years after Browning/Winchester used it in the 30/30 Model 94,and Browning would not allow the Model 94 to be released in 94 because it failed to handle smokeless powder to Browning's satisfaction, Browning was not a zombie.
Reminds me of the black smith hammering out horse shoes, he flipped one over into the sand then someone from Springfield went over and picked it up....and dropped it as fast as he could, the black smith asked the man if the shoe was hot, the man replied "NO SIR!!! It just does not take me long to look at it"
And john Garand designer of the M1, John Garand was from Canada.
Then there is Hatcher thinking head space was a/the culprit, with no way to determine head space he created head space by modifying the chamber, he created the 30/06 Hatcher Modified chamber, that would be a 30/06 chamber with the shoulder forward of the parent chamber .080 thousands, +?, cases when fired became fire formed 30/06 Hatcher modified cases. He did not use other rifles, he did not use Springfield 03 rifles selected from random groups and did not get the results he expected. I have fired 8mm57 ammo in an 8mm06 chamber, that is .127 thousands head space and got the results I predicted, a most dangerous practice if the shooter does not understand Hatcher's Hypotheses and why he did not get the results he predicted.
