This is an extremely brutal elimination competition.
The competitors are Earth's firearms from the beginning of the Cold War to the 21st century, amongst which only one can break out of the siege and become the standard equipment of the Elves.
The data of various firearms were pulled out, and before the official competition began, the rifles of three calibers—5.56mm, 5.45mm, 5.8mm—were eliminated first.
Reason for elimination: Insufficient power.
Speaking of which, it's really a pity for these small-caliber rifles. Originally, because they easily tumble and fracture to form cavities in muscle tissue, they should be considered "high-power rifle rounds." But that is based on the premise of modern human's soft physical characteristics. With the orcs among the Beast races, it's better for small-caliber rifles to step aside.
After the elimination round started, the first ones to be eliminated were the Stg44, HK.G3, and Type 64.
