M1903 Sniper Rifle with Warner & Swasey M1913 Musket Sight
This video details the M1903 Springfield rifle equipped with the Warner & Swasey M1913 Musket Sight. It highlights the sight's history as the US Army's initial sniper optic during WWI, noting its 6x magnification and prismatic design. Despite being heavy and prone to fogging by modern standards, thousands were issued. The example shown features a 1913 scope with an earlier 1908 locking ring and includes data plates with ballistic information for the .30-06 cartridge.
