May I take your gun forcibly from you sir?

Long Range: Tie. I'll be honest, I like the Carcano. It has the larger clip (that one bullet is going to be a vital factor in this fight) and is a bit lighter than the Nagant. Meanwhile, the Nagant has the larger bullet (the Carcano is infamous for its somewhat lack of punching power) and I believe will be easier to reload (my knowledge of en-bloc v stripper clips is non-existant). So, I can see no clear winner.

Mid-Range: White Guard. Now, the MAB is probably my favorite submachine gun ever. I mean, the Germans were tossing their MP40s aside to be able to use this weapon, but it is out-classed here. The Suomi has a larger magazine, a higher fire rate, and better reliability. That is what matters when you get to SMG fight range.
