Here is what you are probably thinking about:

USMC M-1941 Unertl sniper rifle.

To be correct, you need to find a 1903A1 to first start.

I have an '03A1 mounted with a Lyman Super TargetSpot 12X.
It is amazing to see how these rifles can shoot.

Very nice scope that you have.


I have both, Unertl and Lyman, scopes in 12x. Superb pieces of optics.

A bit sensitive and cumbersome for rapid field use under combat situation, especially in Pacific/jungle conditions.

But, in Korea, where long shots were more frequent, this sniper system was much better than the '03A4 or the M1C or M1D.
