as for WWII german weapons, like any manufacturer some were better than others, for example I have an original karabiner 98k mauser rifle which is a fine example of some of their better work. a lot of modern bolt action rifles use a variation of the mauser 98k action because it was solidly built even by modern standards. sure its a bit on the heavy side compared to modern composites, but the smoothness and reliability of the action is hard to beat.
