I've even been on one of the firing points at Bisley ranges next to a guy with one of the SSD Stg.44 repro's 
While not the same as semi, its better than nothing. |
Does straight pull mean manual bolt action? Yeah, not as cool but I'd take a Garand like that. Still quick load 8 rounds enbloc clips I assume.
