World War Heroes — WW2 PvP FPS (2025) featuring : Krag Jørgensen Rifle
The Krag-Jørgensen bolt-action rifles were designed by Ole Krag, Norwegian Army Captain and a director of the national weapons factory Kongsberg Våpenfabrikk, and Erik Jørgensen, a gunsmith, in 1886. In the same year, Denmark was in search of a new rifle for its army, and one of the early prototypes was sent for review. The Danish Army tested the prototype and shared the comment that it was too heavy and the action needed improvement. Over the next several months, Krag and Jørgensen improved upon the design, and on 3 Jul 1889, the design was accepted by the Danish Army. The Danish rifles used 7.87-millimeter rounds; they remained in active service through the time of the German invasion of Denmark in Apr 1940. There were several variants of the Danish Krag-Jørgensen rifles between 1889 and 1940, including carbines and sniper rifles.
