DESCRIPTION
Upon the formation of the Tythe military it did not take long for them to come up with the idea of self produced and supplied weapon, knowing that there was the possibility of a shortage of arms or other issues that the CIS could face limiting the access of weapons for the planetary militia's. To start of the line of production it was recommended that the principality start with a basic long-mid range rifle, such done due to the present peaceful times that the planet was under but also due to simplicity of such a weapon.

Though to be a main feature for Royal Units and civilians alike Chikako expressed interest in having such a weapons mainly reserved for sharp shooters or a back up weapons knowing full well a more versatile weapon for the military would be developed later on. As such while still being a military model the TE No1 is mainly used by the Tytheish Royal Fusiliers and the Highlander regiments.

Hey I'll be judging your sub today!

So I only have one problem thus far. The rate of fire states you can fire off 30 shots per minute. Effectively that is 2 seconds per shot and for a bolt action rifle that seems nearly impossible given the time it takes to negotiate the bolt and re-acquire your target. I feel for a fast bolt action rifle you're looking at 6-10 seconds just to work the bolt and reload.

I was going off the Wiki page for the Enfiled which I believe was spring assisted which helped give it the almost legendary rapid firing rate, but I have changed rate of fire to 15-20 shots per minute. [member="Adron Malvern"]

almost legendary rapid firing rate

Keep in mind, that does not sound like it fits under an "Average" rating.

So lets keep this pushing to an approval!
