Think you know your WW1 and WW2 firepower? From classic bolt-action rifles to massive anti-tank guns, each legendary weapon carried a caliber that defined its performance on the front lines. Here, 24/7 Wall St. is taking a closer look at the small arms of the First and Second World Wars.
To determine the highest-caliber small arms used in the first half of the twentieth century, 24/7 Wall St. reviewed a catalog of guns from Military Factory, an online database of military vehicles, aircraft, and arms. We ranked the guns according to caliber. We included supplemental data on the type of weapon, maximum effective range, and the year entered service.
It’s worth pointing out that this ranking is based on each weapon’s highest caliber round as a simple and consistent metric, even though some weapons might be able to fire smaller calibers. This method uses bullet diameter as the proxy for caliber because it’s easier to compute and explain, but it is not a full measure of the cartridge performance (muzzle energy, case capacity, sectional density, and bullet construction). Also, because this list ranks weapons on bullet diameter, some readers might be surprised to see some small arms ranking higher than others.
Here is a look at the highest-caliber small arms used in the First and Second World Wars:
