Are you serious?
The weapon in question is the reason most of Europe doesn't speak German, and the reason we don't speak Japanese. Some consider it the single most important weapon in the history of the United States, and certainly WWII. It is my M1 Garand, built by the Springfield Armory in October of 1940. It's the first semi-automatic rifle ever issued to an army, and only the second weapon designed for the 30.06 cartridge. Granted its report was the last thing many people heard, but would you rather have had the alternative?
