 * The Kar98k Mauser Rifle was one of the best rifles in the world; which was matched by the British Lee-Enfield, which held 10 rounds (wjjich is amazing for a bolt-action rifle).


 * The Japanese Type 99 had built-in anti-aircraft sights, which is odd for a bolt-action rifle.


 * The Mosin-Nagant was the most commonly produced firearm during WWII. The infantry model had a straight bolt and the sniper model had a curved bolt.


 * The M1911 proved it's worth and became one of, if not, the best pistols in the world.


 * For every Gewher 43 produced, there were 20 M1 Garands produced.


 * The M1 Garand was the first semi-auto rifle to be field to an entire army.


 * The (unreliable) Type 100 was manly used in demolition-suicide missions from the Japanese.
