This rifle may be a Warner & Swasey Sniper Rifle, but NOT for a M1913 scope, and it is somewhat doubtful it is a real W&S sniper rifle due to its particular serial number, but that is just a maybe. The rifle is years too soon for the M1913. The rifle originally came with a M1908 Warner & Swasey, if it is authenticate. The mount rail screws should be exactly flush with the inside of the receiver, and staked in a particular way.:thdown:Quote:

The earliest known M1913 Warner & Swasey Sniper rifle, to my knowledge, is SA SN 577890.:thup:
These are just my humble opinions.:beerchug:

I think John Beard pretty much concurrs with you, Jim. I think I asked him about it awhile back.
That's because we are both MSU Bulldogs!

Maybe this year. You been back recently, John? I went back in 1987, and the place had changed a lot, but still looked the same in a way. I love the old buildings. I still remember compulsory ROTC and those wool uniforms in that oppressive heat. I have never cleaned an M1 since.

I knew that -- just wanted to see if I could get a rise out of J.B. :rofl:
