Someone SEEMS to be really defensive today. Chill out. I was simply going over my thoughts of each rifle design so quit the fanboy frenzy. I'm not taking score. I'm just doing an overview for those who are interested in buying a milsurp and want to know what to expect from the three designs. If I thought the Mosin Nagant was a poor design, why would I own two of them?
why doesnt the 98 get anything for influence? it had much more influence on world arms than the mosin

WHY is the Mosin considered, from what I have seen, to be the toughest or whatever of the two?

I think that more an accident of history than a reflection of the merits of any of the rifle designs under discussion. How many colonies or member states did Germany control after WWII?
