Doing many reports on many WW1 weapons, so far i've got the Vickers gun and the Mills bomb, name off some more popular (easily researchable) ones.

I've always loved Mausers. I don't know why, I am not too sure if they were common in WWI either, although my guess is they were. There was also this piece of russian mechanic brilliance, which name I forgot.
edit:
Mosin-nagant. But again here I am not sure if they were common in WWI. I do know that both rifles existed before WWI, I am also pretty damned sure that there are atleast a dozen variants for both, spread out over half a century.

Ah! The Mosin-Nagant! For some reason, I had completely forgot about this amazing Russian/Belgian rifle. Yes, it was used produced widely by Remington and Westinghouse during WW1.Rostam said:

I'm sorry was there a war that wasn't hell? And when we pick our favourite weapon out of a game?
My favorite infantry weapon from that era would be the Enfield SMLE ... I'd take the 10 rounds of .303 over the 5 rounds of 7x57mm (although I actualy own a Mauser 
)
I want to pick up a nice Longbranch (which is more of a WWII rifle) someday, but my next bolt action battle rifle will probably be a Mosin Nagant M44 ... mostly because you can get one in very good shape for $50 (and 7.62x54R is cheap and easy to find).

The only WWI weapons I've fired are the M1919A1 machine gun and the Colt m1911 pistol . I guess the M1919 was more fun. Everyone and their mom has fired a .45.
Okay. For real?
M1918 BAR. You want ONE absolutely, unargueably man portable ass kicking weapon of WW1? BAR.
Hmm. Maybe I'll post pics . Yay. There's a 1911, someone is working on a Garand, so why not a BAR for Infil!? (Just kidding, really.)
