Best Answer

The German Gewehr 98 rifle and its derivatives. The reason behind this was because of the Mauser bolt-action design that was used in this rifle was so reliable and robust that it was copied by numerous other nations. The American Springfield 1903, for example, was almost a direct copy of the Gewehr 98. Springfield was actually sued by Mauser at one point because of the similaries.

Why was there no gas used in World War 2?

Poison gas is really not a very good weapon of warfare, because although it can be very deadly, it is not very accurate; it goes wherever the wind blows it. So the gas you use might poison enemy troops, or it might poison your own troops. Poison Gas was outlawed by the Geneva Convention after WWI, thou it was still used in small amounts during WWII. This use did not include the massive use of poison gas to kill the Handicapped and then the Jewish people in WWII by the Nazi's (German's)

In borderlands you have made a weapon in willowtree and saved it but when you go into borderlands in steam the weapon isn't in your backpack What is wrong?

You might have made it wrong, made an impossible combination. A hacked weapon still has to be something that can legitimately drop during normal gameplay. A Dahl weapon with a Hyperion component is illegitimate for example and would not show. But you could make a 'perfect' version of a legitimate weapon, something that could take hundreds of hours of gameplay to drop naturally.
