SECTION I

DESCRIPTION OF RIFLE

1. General. The United States rifle, caliber .30, model of 1903, is the only caliber .30 rifle at present authorized for general issue to the service. It is sometimes popularly referred to as the Springfield rifle," because it was first made and is still made at the Springfield Armory, Springfield, Mass. It is a breech-loading magazine rifle of the bolt type. The magazine of the rifle will hold five cartridges and one additional cartridge may be inserted in the chamber, thus making the maximum capacity of the rifle, for any one loading, six shots. In order to facilitate the loading of the magazine, cartridges are ordinarily put up in brass clips, holding five cartridges each. The magazine, however, may be loaded by inserting single cartridges by hand, one after the other. The total weight of the rifle, including oiler and thong case, but without bayonet, is 8.69 pounds. The bayonet weighs 1 pound.
