He is saying that he got from his father a 1917 in .30 cal that was a sniper (aren't they all).

He told me that he has a star guaged barrel and there is a slit along the loading port for a sniper scope.

I did see a very early image of it by a decent size buck in 1950 It is a 1917.

Even if it is, he did a lot of modification to it for his own needs and you know how that goes. Anybody ever seen a issued 1917 with a SNIPER scope?
