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.

Born from the failures of the older Springfield Model 1892–99 Krag–Jørgensen in battles during the Spanish-American War, the newer Mauser-action derived Springfield M1903 service rifle would go on to serve the U.S. military in WWI, WWII and even the Korean conflict. This 1944 technical manual is not for users, but is rather a repair/maintenance manual for use by ordnance specialists. Every component of the rifle is outlined in great depth, from the sights to the barrel and even the bayonets used. Illustrated with copious fine-detailed photos and diagrams, it describes how to maintain or repair every aspect of each sub-component of the rifle. No detail is left out. There is even an additional section on special maintenance for long-term storage or veryhot/very cold climates. If you own a vintage M1903 Springfield of any model this is the book you will want to own. A terrific resource for the historian or for those with in interest in military arms.
