Does any one have complete instructionson how to put together a springfield 1903 Drill Rifle? I'm new in the armory and know basics on the building of it, but need to know if I do it correctly.

Could say USE GOOGLE, but I'll do this instead.

There has to be some old Army Manual on this SOME WHERE on the net that you could view, download, or BUY to help you out. There MIGHT be a VFW location near your school that YOU could call and see if any of the Old Veterans have this information and MIGHT be willing to help you out with a little OJT.

Maybe you could find these Reference items:
* "Engineer Field Manual", War Department, Document No. 355, 1909.
* "Manual for Noncommissioned Officers and Privates of Infantry of The Army of the United States", War Department, Document No. 574, 1917.


Quite Possibly THIS Link may help you also:

Looking for filmed images of K98 rifle drill. Parades rather than individual. Prefer LAH but settle with any W-SS or WH at a push. Have tried YOUTUBE but to no avail. Anyone help?
