Now that we have picked our favorites let's pick our least favorites in the long gun, pistol, and edged weapon categories.

Long gun-Reising Model 50 SMG guarnteed to jam when you needed it most. Many Reisings were tossed overboard by Marines who dreaded carrying the weapon into combat

Pistol-Type 94 Pistol-Japanese pistol which probably killed more operators of the weapon than targets

Edged weapon- The Polish Lance-only because it was a primary weapon of many Polish Calvary Units going up against tanks and machine guns

A Japanese bolt action rifle I forget what its called. I tried one of these things out once and if that represents the best the Japanese could muster building weapons in World War 2 I have to wonder how thay made it as far as they did.

That straight-pull bolt action rifle that tends to unlock on firing taking the shooters' eye out...own goal! \:D

Potato gun.

Not a gun that fires a whole potato, but those little 'Action Man' guns that you dug the barrel in the potato then fired the pellet at your friends head while your mother screamwed something about '... putting an eye out with that thing ...'

Japanese katana. Absolutely beautifull, very pugnacious looking but, com´on, RL is not like "The Last Samurai".

Anyway, if some japanese officer got killed because that big sword was disturbing him, at least he died with glory.

An arisaka.

It was the biggest, longest (and I *think* heaviest) rifle of WW2, it also was one of the poorest performers.

That italian breda MG was pretty poxy too...

LOL -=Raz=- !!!!

You can see it coming eh?

"Thats right son. Just stand there... its only a .22 bunny gun. Lean back a little if it helps you aim. Don't hold it too tight now. Relax that shoulder. Now gently squeeze the trigger..."

Yep - I laughed my ring out watching that and realised that I am a less kind human than I thought I was. \:\)
