    Remember when the black semi auto was designed and hit the field...was now 50+ years... The battles they've been through and places they've been cannot be considered nothing. The examples of the bolt guns that have ACTUALLY SEEN BATTLE are more rare than one might believe. Most that we have now are just the ones carried and used day to day... I think the little black rifle's acquitting it's self nicely.
