Wie nach ihren Autos, die errichtet wurden, um fur immer zu laufen und mit einem Autobahn fur eine Testschiene, konnte wer um mehr bitten?

I grew up with a German housekeeper, worked as a live-in in Cinci for my Grandmother Edith- Frau Hilda Stupphnagel-- and so I aced HS German--Milwaukee, WI and Cinci OH- two large cities with high % of Germans, still kept teaching German in the schools in spite of the WWI and Lusitania affair- Ach Klaven!!-
I also agree with the late Jack O'Connor- in that many German shotguns are amorphous (bulky) and over done with carved leaping stags and cheekpieces-- But as to the great K98 rifle designed by Peter Paul Mauser that action is still considered to be worldclass in its design--
And as for the Autos, well when we consider that Germany has the Autobahn for its test track, well who could ask for anything better??
