An excellent representation of sniper rifle technology from the 1940s, the Springfield M1904A4 is still plenty enjoyable and accurate today.

It is the rifle with the shortest tenure as the main battle arm of the U.S. military, yet the M-14, in various configurations, continues to fill a need.

Can you believe it? An AR-15 that will fire 100,000 rounds without a cleaning? The Patriot Ordnance P415 is passing unthinkable tests.

During the war for our independence, only approximately a third of the colonists supported the independence cause. Another third didn't care one way or the other and the last third wanted to remain under British rule. Which are you?
