...the term "Miltary Rifles" is being bruited about to panic the viewer, when apparently some of the rifles in question haven't even been brandished in anger since the annexation of Schleswig-Holstein.
I've got "military rifles" in my house, too. They saw service with, for example, the Imperial Japanese military and the military of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. I know a lot of Civil War reenactors with "military rifles", too. Quick! Round them up!
