WORLD WAR I Era REMINGTON U.S. M1917 Bolt Action C&R MILITARY Rifle .30-06
WWI INFANTRY Rifle with “R/FLAMING BOMB/9-18 Barrel
Description: WORLD WAR I Era REMINGTON U.S. M1917 Bolt Action C&R MILITARY Rifle .30-06 WWI INFANTRY Rifle with “R/FLAMING BOMB/9-18 Barrel Here we present a C&R Remington U.S. Model 1917 Bolt Action Rifle, made in 1918 in Ilion, New York. The Remington Model 1917 was an adaptation of Britain’s Enfield Pattern 1914 that both Remington & Winchester were producing during the Great War. This was prior to direct American intervention in the worldwide conflict. When the U.S. entered the war, they too needed all the small arms production they could muster for the war effort. R\her than retooling these factories to produce the American Model 1903, the U.S. Ordnance Department simply elected to adapt the Enfield Pattern 1914 to American specifications, primarily chambering the rifle for .30-06 Springfield, creating the U.S. Model 1917. These went to arm the American Expeditionary Force in Europe during WWI. An M1917 Enfield rifle was used by Sergeant Alvin C. York on October 8, 1918, during the event for which he was awarded the Medal of Honor, according to the U.S. 82nds division’s official history. His citation for the medal reads “After his platoon had suffered heavy casualties and 3 other noncommissioned officers had become casualties, Cpl. York assumed command. Fearlessly leading 7 men, he charged with great daring a machinegun nest which was pouring deadly and incessant fire upon his platoon. In this heroic feat the machinegun nest was taken, together with 4 officers and 128 men and several guns.” The overall condition is good. Strong action. Shiny bright bore with serviceable rifling. A small patch repair is on the left buttstock. Sanded and re-oiled stock is in good shape. This example has been re-finished wholly. Legible markings. Stacking swivel is absent. Own the original!
