  Bolt-Action Rifles:
Bolt-Action Rifles have long been a part of the modern battlefield and, relatively recently, were used more for sport in some cases. Bolt-action rifles saw combat through many military campaigns, including World War One and World War Two. In today's military environment, popularized by automatic weapons, the bolt-action rifle is still used as a proven measure of subtle offense for taking out precision targets and is also used in sniper weapon systems all across the world. Ultimately though, it has made its way into the hands of the average collectors, whom either strive to keep the system in mint condition or use it occasionally for sport and / or hunting. Either way, the bolt-action rifle appears to be here to stay for at least a little while longer.
