+Melee: These knives strike me as being way to similar to actually edge between the two. I think the pure size of the bowie hunter and it's curve tip will make it a winner. SLIGHT EDGE - Rough R.

+Pistol: Luger has more rounds and semi-auto. It's sights also look more advanced and has a magazine feed. It easily takes this one. EDGE-Stormtrooper.

+Rifle: The sprinfield rifle was made (in image of the mauser) because the krag was so destroyed by the mauser in mexico, I think that will be mirriored in this match. The Mauser has been proven while the krag was a flop. EDGE-Stormtrooper

+Mach Gun: Gatling gun jabs less, but takes two people to move (by pushing) and you stand while using it, that will make them the easiest target. Also the MG 08 has an average effective range of 2,187 yd but I don't know what that is compared to the gatling gun. I think the gatling gun will win out but not by much imo. SLIGHT EDGE-Rough R.

+Overall WIN-STORMTROOPER, their rifle and training/expirience will win them this match.
