Partly why I want one actually is because i'll be an infantry soldier for the National Guard soon, so I want the rifle that infantrymen in WWII would have carried.
that's how it starts...
then during basic training you'll be training with the M4/16 and the instructor will tell you that the stoner design is the greatest infantry weapon design of all time(in my opinion it's pretty darn close) so you'll rush out as soon as you graduate and get an AR15.

then you'll think that since you have WWII-vietnam in your collection you may as well get a springfield 1903 and add WWI to the collection. then you'll need a handgun and naturally the M9 is familiar so that one goes into the pot.


the next thing you know you will have an M1A(closest thing to an M14 you can get), 1911, 1917 and an M1 carbine and have a 1903A4 sniper reproduction on order to complete your collection and carry on the infantry tradition...

it's an expensive addiction but still fun non-the-less.
