World War II U.S. SPRINGFIELD M1903 MARK I C&R Military Rifle FLAMING BOMB

SA/7-42 Barrel Marked United States Infantry Rifle

Here we present a C&R U.S. Springfield Model 1903 Mark I Bolt Action Infantry Rifle, made in 1919 at the Springfield Arsenal in Springfield, Massachusetts. This Model 1903 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.

Initially, the 1903 Springfield was chambered in a new .30-03 caliber. The cartridge employed a rimless, necked-down case with a 220-grain round-nosed bullet that left the muzzle of the 24-inch barrel at some 2,300 feet-per-second. Though the round was certainly adequate for military work, when the Germans adopted a superior pointed spitzer bullet in 1904, the Americans followed suit with their own version that had a 150-grain cupro-nickel-jacketed bullet that boosted the older round's velocity by some 400 fps. And thus, the famed .30-06 was born.

The overall condition is good. Strong action. The bore is dark. This example sports a solid stock with an average amount of wear. Legible markings. “SA/7-42” dated barrel.
