The Springfield Rifle refers to a series of military rifles produced by the United States at the Springfield Armory in Massachusetts. The most notable model is the Springfield M1903, which was widely used during World War I and World War II. It is a bolt-action rifle known for its accuracy and reliability, chambered for the .30-06 Springfield cartridge. Another significant model is the Springfield M1 Garand, which was the first standard-issue semi-automatic rifle for the U.S. military. Designed by John Garand, it played a crucial role during World War II and the Korean War, providing soldiers with a higher rate of fire compared to bolt-action rifles.
