Germans didnt use the same tactics than US. They built their squad tactics around MG42 (which is still used today in a lot of armed forces- MG3) so Kar98 sufficed, US had a diffrent approach so they needed better rifles. And WW2 mauser rifles are even today still used because of their supreme accuracy
And you forgot the Mp44 world's first assault rifle.
But you could say allies cougt germany in later years of the war in terms of technology but the thing is germany allready had new generation of superior weapons prepared by then (Me262 first jet fighter, V2, Mp44, XXI u-boat, air to air heat seeking missiles, new genaration of tanks...) but because of allied bombing raids these weapons were never produced as much as they were ment too.
