WWI US SPRINGFIELD Model 1903 .30-06 Bolt Action Infantry Rifle C&R Great War

Infantry Rifle Made in 1905 at the Springfield Armory

Here we present a U.S. Springfield Model 1903 Bolt Action Infantry Rifle, made in 1905 at the Springfield Arsenal. This rifle had a production run from 1903 through 1949 with over 3,000,000 produced. The M1903 Springfield, formally the United States Rifle, is an American five-round magazine fed, bolt-action service repeating rifle, used primarily during the first half of the 20th century. It was officially adopted as a United States military bolt-action rifle on June 19, 1903, and saw service in World War I. It was officially replaced as the standard infantry rifle by the faster-firing semi-automatic eight-round M1 Garand starting in 1936. However, the M1903 Springfield remained in service as a standard issue infantry rifle during World War II since the U.S. entered the war without sufficient M1 rifles to arm all troops. It also remained in service as a sniper rifle from 1936 through 1975, which included World War II, the Korean War, and even in the Vietnam War. It still remains popular as a civilian firearm, historical collector's piece, a competitive shooting rifle, and as a military drill rifle.

The barrel is marked "SA/flaming bomb/12-14" and also included a canvassling.

The overall condition is very good. The action is strong. The bore is in good condition, a bit dim and with good rifling. Smooth, solid stock with some visible cartouches. “AA1” is stamped on the left stock and circle “P”s are visible on the pistol grip. A canvas sling in good condition is included. A very nice 1903 from 1914 that would have seen service during the Great War!
