 the m1 Garand rifle was a semi-automatic rifle. used in world war 2 they were the only people to have a semi-automatic rifle in the start of world war 2. the person that made the gun was already making weapons for the army but the only one that I know of was this type of machine gun that was supposed to make the gun lighter. but they never adopted it. the grand was built for accuracy and more or less long-range combat. the semi-automatic part of very useful for where the other people had to pull the bolt back and fire the Americans could fire without stopping. so even a small amount of people with these rifles could do the same thing a machine gun could. the garand had an 8 shot clip which was bigger than most other rifles besides the Englishes bolt action rifle that had ten rounds.
