The greatest of all U.S. military issue, bolt action rifles, the M1903 Springfield saw front line service in WWI and WWII, and limited service in the Korean War and Vietnam. Officially known as the United States Rifle, Caliber .30-06, Model 1903, the Springfield is a five-round magazine, repeating rifle. The origins of the weapon can be traced back to the 1898 Spanish-American War, and the effective and deadly use of the Mauser M1893 by Spanish troops. It was clear that these weapons outclassed American standard-issue Springfield Krag-Jorgensen rifles. In the wake of that conflict, the U.S. military decided to rapidly adopt the "Mauser system" and purchased a license from Germany for $200,000. The resulting weapon was a long gun with accuracy at range and a reliable internal mechanism. It was fairly conventional in design, except that the weapon could be considered a hybrid, in that it was capable of serving both as a service gun and a carbine. The M1903 was designed, developed and built at the Springfield Armory, and so took on the "Springfield" designation. Initially designed to use the 30-03 cartridge, the weapon was modified to accept a pointed bullet design known as the "Cartridge, Ball, Caliber 30, Model of 1906". This bullet became known as the ".30-06" or ".30-06 Springfield". The M1903 first saw combat during the Philippine-American War, and by the outbreak of WWI was the U.S. Army's standard infantry rifle. It began to be supplanted by the semi-automatic M1 Garand in 1936, but due to production shortages and other issues, it was still used extensively in WWII. Post-war it remained in service primarily secondary uses such as guard duty, as a drill rifle, and for sniper duty. Today the M1903 Springfield remains popular as a civilian firearm, historical collector's piece, a competitive shooting rifle, and as a military drill rifle. Produced by the U.S. Army in 1944, this technical manual was created for ordnance maintenance personnel. It contains detailed instructions for the disassembly, assembly, inspection, maintenance and repair of the M1903, M1903A1, M1903A3, M1903A4 (snipers) as well as the associated M1905 and M1 bayonets and scabbards, slings, and M73B1 telescopic sight.

The United States military has adopted many different firearms to be used for service over its history. There has been drastic progress made in the technology each of these weapons used, as well as how the military chose which rifle would be selected. In the United States, the biggest advances in single soldier weaponry happened throughout the twentieth century. During the start of this period, a United States military rifleman was using a bolt action Springfield 1903 rifle, and at the end of this period he was using the ultra-light fully automatic M16 assault rifle. This change in standard issue equipment did not happen overnight, and I will examine how each service rifle was developed, what led to its adoption along with its military service, and the soldiers’ opinion of each rifle. My examination will start with the Springfield 1903 leading into WWI, then transition to the M1 Garand in WWII. This was followed by the M14 at the end of the Korean War and the start of the war in Vietnam, and finish with the adoption of the M16 assault rifle for the remainder of the Vietnam War into today. Each of these rifles marked a major leap forward for United States’ weapon manufacturing as well as an improvement to the soldiers’ ability to be effective in battle. The lessons learned by the United States military after the development and deployment of these weapons helped shape the requirements for future weapons, along with the American idea of how an infantry soldier can be most effective in battle.
