Riflemen

(Marauders from RDA)

picture of riflemen

History:

With the advent during the 19th century of breechloading repeating rifles using metallic cartridges the picture changes completely; riflemen replaced musketeers. The repeating rifle held sway during World War I and was succeeded during and after World War II by the semi-automatic rifle, notable the U.S. army's Garand rifle. In the 1950 full automatic rifles came into common use.
