What rifles were used in World War 1?

Many different kinds of guns were used during World War I. Specifically, machine guns, submachine guns, Mauser rifles, and Lee-Enfield rifles were used.

Assault rifles made their appearance during WW2. However, the british used a machine gun in world war 1 called the Bren that was quite like an assault rifle of the day.

The main weapons used for world war 1 happen to be the muskets, poisonous gas, airplanes, and sniper rifles

By killing thousands of men and modernizing the war

During World War 1 the sniper rifles were mostly the standard issue rifle that had a telescopic sight or Scope installed. The three main standard issue rifles that were used and modified for sniper detail were: the British Lee Enfield, The German Gewehr 98, and the American 1903 Springfield.

I'm thinking it was primarily the .303 Lee Enfield, but I may be wrong....

In addition to the rifles listed below, the US used 2 different rifles- the 1903 Springfield, and the US rifle 1917. Both were in caliber 30-06, but had different designs. The Russians were using the 1891 Mosin-Nagant.

New inventions changed warfare during World War 1 by creating new weapons and creating more casualties. Some of the inventions during World War 1 were tanks, infantry rifles, and machine guns.

Bayonets were quite popular for trench raiding. Elite units used early flamethrowers for the same purpose

The Mark one and two Enfield Bolt Action Rifle in calibre .303 were the standard issue rifles (Australia) in World War I.

They included rifles, pistols and revolvers, shotgun, machine guns and cannon. From a rifle standpoint, the US used 30-06 rifles (the 1903 Springfield and the P17 Enfield) Britain used the SMLE in .303, Germany used the 8mm Mauser, France used the 8mm Lebel, and Russia used the 91/30 Mosin-Nagant.

gas was used as a weapon that choked and blinded the enemy. also, airplanes were beginning to be used. artillery, tanks, rifles, and machine guns were weapons used, but I'm not positive if they were new.

Rifles, mortars, artillery,machine guns, tanks,airplanes, warships of many types, submarines, airships and dangerous gases.

Tanks (armored cars) were used for the first time at the Battle of the Somme during World War 1. More modern tanks were developed just before the end of the war. Anti-aircraft guns, sub-machine guns, and automatic rifles that could be used by one man, were developed during World War 1. The hand grenade was in existence but was quickly developed for use during WW1. Poison gases such as chlorine gas and mustard gas were…

Both the Allied and Central powers saw the usefulness of Aircraft BUT mostly as artillery spotters. It was only when the pilots began carrying pistols and rifles to attack other reconnaissance aircraft that the use of aircraft as armed weapons of war began.

Answer 1) The sniper version of the M14 (an evolution of the M1 Garand used in WW2) was used by the USMC until 1964 or 1967 (depending on which source you consult), after which they used the specially made Remington M40. Answer 2) During Vietnam the sniper that the USMC primarily used was the Remington700. They needed this because during World War I and World War II standard infantry weapons with scopes on them were…

New technologies used in World War 1 include: - Planes used in combat; improvements with bombers and forward-mounted guns - Armored tanks - Chemical warfare; chlorine and mustard gas - Bolt-action rifles - Anti-aircraft weapons - Flamethrowers - Dreadnoughts and other battle ships - Experimental dirigibles and lighter-than-air aircraft

1. 1903 Springfield bolt action rifles for the men in the Pacific, until the US counter attacks began with men armed with M-1 Garand rifles arrived. 2. M-1 Garand rifles (semi-automatic), M-1/M-2 .30 caliber Carbines (semi-auto), .45 Pistols (semi-auto), Thompson submachineguns (machinguns that shoot PISTOL ammunition), BAR's (Browning Automatic Rifles in .30-06 caliber). 3. Browning .30 & .50 caliber machineguns. 4. Bazookas (shoulder fired anti-tank rocket launchers). 5. Hand grenades. 6. 60mm & 81mm mortars.

There are many differences between the US Civil War and World War One. Here are the major ones: 1. The US Civil War was due to eleven states of the US seeking to form an independent nation, the Confederate States of America. World War One was a conflict between several world powers, mostly European nations and the USA. There is no major connection to either war on this basis except that the government of the…

Most all Civil War Rifles were Muzzleloader single shot rifles. Few Soldiers carried side arms (Guns). A really fast soldier could get of 2 shots in about 6 seconds in a pinch. Guns normally required that each gun be loaded with black powder a patch and a ball. a tamping rod forced everything in place in the barrel. By the time WWI came around rapid-fire guns like the machine gun, auto loader pistols and multi…

By far the tanks and aircraft. It made the buildings collapse. Also the advances in rifles. More advanced assault rifles were issued like the semi automatic M1 Garand or the Thompson SMG. Actually the Q is a bit misleading: Yes the weapons were better, more destructive, but in fact it is the ammunition itself that makes the difference. The explosive power was literally more explosive & better delivered to the target because of the improvement…

It was a camauflauged uniform so that the soldiers could blend into the back ground. If they had worn bright colouful uniforms it would have made them easy targets for rifles.

machine guns that were timed to shoot thru the propeller First, single fired rifles from the second seat flyer. Machine guns were added but they had a problem with them shooting the propeller off. This was remedied by the way and hand dropped bombs were the last addition.

they were used for keeping an eye out just incase the enemy was attacking and so they were also ready to fight. Answer Primitive periscopes were used in the trenches of the Western Front, both for observation purposes and fitted to sniper's rifles (as the troops' heads would otherwise be exposed at the lip of the trench). Periscopes were also fitted to WWI submarines.

Depending on the range, rifles can shoot to 800 meters to 1, 400 meters away.

You would be in a muddy bunker with bolt action rifles trying to shoot the guys in the bunker a few hundred metres away. You would have a gas mask to put on to avoid the gas dropped by planes.

1. It was located in the Atlantic ocean. 2.it took place between April 12th 1861 and April 9th 1865 3.Only America and the US took part in this war 4.they used rifle muskets, rifles, six shooter pistols and swords AND FINALLY............. 5.The war was caused by argument and debate between the US and America

The name 'World War 1' was first used in 1940.

it was never used in world war 1

i dont know when were tanks used in world war 1 The first tanks were used in 1915, and continued to be used off-and-on until the end of the war. It was a new kind of warfare with many technical and tactical problems which were not reolved before the war ended. World War 1 was the first war in which tanks were used, but they did almost nothing to affect the outcome of the war.

It was World War 1.

The Battle of the Bulge was fought during World War II from mid-December 1944 through mid-January 1945. Weapons included tanks such as Tigers, King Tigers, Panthers, and Mark IV's, minimal bomber and fighter aircraft, and bolt-action rifles and the semi-automatic M-1.

Helicopters were not used in World War 1. And they were just being designed in World War 2. It wasn't until the Korean War that the Helo was used.

cocain and other drugs such as cigrettes were used in world war 1

Practically every conceivable type of gun was used in World War II, from silenced pistols to rifles, sniper rifles, machine guns, and bazookas. Artillery included anti-tank guns, howitzers, field guns, railway guns, naval guns, and a plethora of ship-to-ship and anti-aircraft weapons. Japanese warships fired special fragmenting anti-aircraft shells called beehives. In the Baltic states, old-fashioned shotguns and smoothbore cannons were used, although they were technically obsolete. The basic weapons employed by American GI's were…
