I do have five nits to pick about 1912-3-1, namely the detachable magazines being a thing,
I was somewhat worried about this too but it's mainly because a whole lot of bolt action rifles from the era actually do have magazines that can be detached, it's just that they're almost never issued with them. If there's significant pushback then I'm fine with dropping that since if we ever have to make longer ones then putting a longer fixed magazine is literally the least worrying modification.
the bayonet with 45mm of blade(Yes, thats probably just a typo. 450mm blades? Thats still a really short grip for a sword bayonet)
Oh, yeah, obvious typo, you get those with all the paperwork sometimes. Would be hilarious if the bad roll actually resulted in the issue being something like this. The issues stem from me originally wanting to do something absolutely absurd like 700mm bayonet before scaling back to something closer to M1917 while rounding the numbers for neatness. I shall revise post-haste.
the chargers being called stripper clips(they arent really, it encapsulates the rounds, argle blargle gumph),
Fair. Maybe there would be confusion as to how they actually work if I named them otherwise but you're right.
what ranges are the sights setup fer
I don't want to go into this because this sort of detail is ultimately very pointless (and ideally would depend on what sort of performance can we get out of our round) unless it's something remarkable or funny. I imagine grading them to a kilometer would be more than sufficient but we can go full on over two kilometers if we want that pre-WW1 flair.
and finally there is the implication that you cant do a semi-auto conversion of bolt-action firearms that do not have straight-pull actions.
Its just significantly easier. and less janky, but they would be anyways.
Oh no, not at all. But I think it would look more sleek with the cams being inside (as really some pieces of internals of a straight pull like Schmidt-Rubin are pretty similar to how most bolt-action conversions operated on the outside). Rychiger rifle looks really nice and it's essentially that, although I have never seen any good explanation as to how do the internals actually work compared to S-R and how does it deal with bolt going into someone's face. Maybe they just were men about it.
Barring suggestions on how to make my entry acceptable to others, I have no objections with going for the 1912-3-1, atleast if we drop the first two digits of the year. Think of the paper and ink we can save by omitting them!
This is why ADMI is clearly the superior method of designation but I fear we would have to have a huge explanation block and guide to make it accesible to everyone.
The NSA-SR-12-3-2, ADM Index:1A1 is a straight pull striker fired service rifle chambered in 7.5x55mm (NSA-FC-12-2-1, ADM Index: 2A1) copper jacket spitzer cartridge. The free-floating rifle barrel is 600mm with the whole rifle being about 1100mm in length, with white beech wooden furniture covering the front. The metal parts of the rifle have been chemically blackened through mid-temperature black oxidation. The reciever has a simple tangent sight and there's a hooded front post attached to the front of the barrel. The rifle is usually ranged for one kilometer of range with alternating notches for every 100 meters, with the lowest, resting position being ranged for 50 meters.
The rifle uses a rotating bolt assembly attached to a simple straight bolt handle which, which allows the rifle to be operated in a simple, efficient motion of pulling the handle back to unlock the action, eject the cartridge and cock the striker before pushing it forward to chamber a new round and make the gun ready to fire again. Rear of the reciever assembly features a big ring which is connected to the rifle's striker and servers as safety, pulling it and turning it to the side prevents the rifle from firing.
The rifle feeds from detachable 6-round magazine (NSA-FC-12-2-1A, ADM Index: 1B1) sitting almost flush with the stock that can be reloaded either using single bullets or with help of 6-round charging clips (NSA-FC-12-2-2B, ADM Index: 2A1-2) made mostly out of waxed cardboard with metal pieces reinforcing only the bottom of the clip.
There is a cleaning kit (NSA-FA-12-2-1, ADM Index: 1C1) included with the rifle which fits in the rear of the wooden stock, and a long, 600mm sword bayonet (NSA-MW-12-3-2A ADM Index: 1D1), out of which about 450mm are the blade. The bayonet attaches safely to both the barrel and the handguard, and stored in a scabbard (NSA-MW-12-1-2B ADM Index: 1E1) that can be attached to soldier's belts. The bayonet blade isn't blackened and the bayonet can be used separately from the rifle as a short sword.
I might create a more comprehensive idea of what the ADMI would look like in a bit.
