The Springfield 1903 Rifles

[Aragorn243]

By Lt. Col. William S. Brophy

I finally got a copy of this book the other day. I've wanted one since examining a copy at a store last winter. The price kept me away from the purchase at that time.

Used copy about half retail on ebay, hard to get there too without paying the big bucks.

I'm not a collector of these specifically but this book is just full of all kinds of interesting information on just about everything and every type object or accessory that went with these.

616 pages of 1903 information, lots of photos, cutaways and drawings. Follows the history of the rifles along with the hardware.

I tripped over a copy at a friends shop when he called to say he had some books for me to see. It was one of about twenty books I picked and they were mostly big name. Brophy's book is one you can open for a minute and then realize you've been reading for an hour.
