User:Kevin Murray/United States military rifles

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

There were also numerous limited production, experimental, marksmanship, and sporting rifles produced by the Springfield Armory which are referred to as "Springfield rifles".

Some examples of the smoothbore Springfield Model 1842 musket that were later modified with rifling and used during the American Civil War may also be referred to as "Springfield rifles".

The Krag-Jørgensen, M1 Garand and M14 rifles are not typically referred to as "Springfield rifles", even though they were rifles manufactured by the Springfield Armory for the U.S. military.
