replies: text: Not only that, much of this article seems to have been copied from that site with exceptions from a few others. The lede sentence is from here. Everything from "Schmidt–Rubin Model 1896" through "Schmidt-Rubin 1896/11 Rifle" inclusive appears to have come from swissrifles.com. I haven't found the rest but ... that's quite enough.

replies: text:  The www.museumoftechnology.org.uk page was not saved prior to 2014, but they claim a 2007 copyright date. The lede containing the duplicate text appeared with this edit at 2007-08-02T13:58:31. I have no idea which is earlier. Jeh (talk) 23:44, 19 September 2015 (UTC)
