M1917 Eddystone
I was at the CMP South Store this morning and to my delight found a very nice (MW of 2!!) M1917 Eddystone in the 378xxx range (barrel dated 2-18). Can anyone tell me when this was born? Also, where can I find disassembly/assembly instructions for this rifle? I have an M1903, an M1903A3, several Garands, and several carbines, but this is my fir first M1917. TIA

Ferris book approximates your SN Eddy about 3/18 to 4/18 but it is not uncommon for a receiver to predate or postdate the barrel date by three months. So, early 1918 is a valid answer.
