What is the magic of semi-automatic rifles? Why did it replace the bolt rifle?

SVT semi-automatic rifle is an excellent weapon in World War II. It is purely a rumor that the Soviets who vilify the Soviet Union in the West "hate SVT rifles". Now compare SVT with American M 1 as follows:

1, advanced ammunition supply mode: SVT can supply ammunition for ten magazines, five magazines and one shot, and it is allowed to supply ammunition when shooting. M 1 can only supply ammunition to 8 magazines, and cannot supply ammunition when shooting.

2. Light weight: SVT weighs 3.75kg, M 1 4.37kg. ..

3. High accuracy: SVT is one grade higher than M 1.

4. Simple structure, high reliability and convenient maintenance: this must be said more. In the film Sevastopol, under the guidance of the shooting coach, the female shooter easily disassembled the five components of SVT: the pin, the shell cover, the recoil spring, and the upper and lower bolt, which were exactly the same as the SKS (China called 56 rounds and a half) copied in China later, and could be said to be the best in the world. There is no such thing as "complicated structure and difficult maintenance" in western articles. Besides, there is no joke in the world that an army can't maintain rifles. Was the 5 million 56-type rifles equipped by China in those days used by highly educated soldiers?

When it comes to shortcomings, the output is definitely less than M 1, but this is a decision-making problem and has nothing to do with the rifle itself.

For a long time, as long as western articles involve the topic of Soviet products, they have basically laid the groundwork for these products to copy each other. For example, the Nagan revolver was used by the political commissar to shoot deserters, and the SVT rifle was maintained by the navy, but not by the army; Photo 104 with parachute; The picture 1 14 is equipped with a fire escape; The Soviet Union can hear noise when flying in the Arctic of Australia. The nose of Il 62 needs a four-and-a-half-ton water tank to keep balance; Passengers of Il 86 need to enter the bottom cargo hold to put their luggage; And sue 65433.

After reading these, you can imagine that there are so many rumors about China on Twitter that others can believe them, just as you believe these rumors about Soviet products!
