	Springfield 1903 rifle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		M1903 (1905) changed from a rod type bayonet to the knife type Model 1905 bayonet and to the improved Model 1905 sight.
		In regards to its military use, it is important to note that during WWI it was actually outnumbered by the M1917 Enfield for much of the war.
		Interestingly, both the Krag and the M1903 would have a magazine lock that stopped the rounds in the magazine from feeding (allowing a individual round to be fed).

		This device was inserted into the modified M1903 action instead of the standard bolt, and featured a semi-automatic action with box magazine, that fired a specially-designed.30 caliber (7.62mm) straight-wall cartridges of relatively low power, allowing to every soldier equipped with modified M1903 to fire rapidly from the hip while advancing onto the enemy positions.
		The M1903 was a striker fired design, with cocking on the bolt open, and a firing pin knob protruding behind the bolt, so the action state could be easily checked manually or visually if it is cocked or not.
		The iron sights of the M1903 consisted of the blade front sight and a barrel-mounted tangent-type leaf rear sights.

		The M1903 was initially chambered for the "Model 1903" cartridge, typically known as the ".30-03.".This rimless,30-cal. round was more powerful than its predecessor but caused severe bore erosion.
		In October 1906, a vastly improved cartridge with a "spitzer" bullet and reformulated powder to reduce the.30-03's severe bore erosion was adopted as the "Cartridge, Ball, Caliber.30, Model of 1906," now widely known as the ".30-'06." Existing barrels were rechambered for the new cartridge and all subsequent M1903s were in.30-'06.
		With the modifications of 1905 and the adoption of the.30-'06, the M1903 was in the general configuration that would be in production at varying levels for almost 40 years.

	USMC Rebuilding Of The M1903 Springfield

		While the M1903 and M1917 were reliable, accurate, and powerful, they shared two drawbacks in common with all bolt-action military service rifles; the mechanism was slow to operate and the standard cartridge was overly powerful for some combat applications.
		Beginning in 1937, the M1903 Mark I rifles were recalled to Springfield Armory for conversion to M1903 configuration by removing the special Mark I parts and replacing them with standard M1903 components.
