I dont actually have any facts to provide but when playing DOD I notice that the 98K takes a long time to ready the next bullet, (pulling back to bolt and pushing it back in)
I have read accounts where soldiers can reload these extremely quickly in battle and I dont think that the time it takes in DOD is very realistic, does anyone know anything about the German guns yet?

if ya read their boards when 1.3 came out, people were pretty pissed at the reload

Well, having shot many Bolt action rifles, seeing thats all Australians can basically fuckin own in the rifle area, I'd have to say I'm not really impressed with the reload times of the Mauser. The Allied Light Infantry have a distinct advantage over the German Light Infantry in terms of rate of fire, but the Mauser being a bolt action is more accurate, which I guess sort of redeems the slow reload, but still, reloading and aiming doesnt take aslong as it does in DoD, it's not realistic at all. I hope MoH:AA is alot better in that department, as I'm sure it will.
