M1903A1 UNERTL MOD
I designed this mod with the use of it in mind, BUT it can run without it. While it's not a dependency of the Springfields, I highly, HIGHLY reccommend running this with Kerc's Weapon Eventhandleer Framework (). This pack has two examples of M1903A1 - A standard-issue M1903A1, and a M1903A1 with Unertl 8x Scope. Additonally, during WW2, New-manufacture Springfields were built by Remington and Smith-Corona for the Army as A3 and A4s, though both contracts ceased with WW2-VD. Unertl had the contract to supply the USMC. Though the Springfield M1903A1 was officially retired by the Army in 1939, the USMC continued using these specifically through WW2 as a service rifle and into Vietnam as a sniper's rifle, in limited capacity. Unertl scopes were chosen by the USMC during WW2 to match with the Springfield M1903A1 as their standard sniper. Of worthy note too, the 1903A1s used by the USMC for sniper roles were built off commercial match-grade(1903NM) receivers and barrels. The A1 of 1929 model incorprated two significant changes to the rifle from the stock 1903, or 1903 Mk1 - the rifles were fitted with "C" Stocks (stocks with a more pistol-like grip behind the trigger), and the complete omission of support for the Pedersen device. The 1903 incorporated further design elements from deconstructed Spanish Model 93 Mausers, that despite fundemental differences in operation (notably the Two-piece firing pin of the Krag versus the Mauser's one), Mauser Werke successfully litigated the US Government for US$250,000 un-adjusted for inflation and won. The first offering, the 1901,was turned away by the Army,but it only took them a year to revise the design to a level of satisfaction. The rifle's developement took beneficial design elements from the Krag Rifles and overlayed with the feed mechanics of Mauser pattern action. One capable of firing more capable rounds expected of rifles of 1900, and was less cumbersome to feed and operate in combat. In the aftermath of the war, the US Army and Navy went straight to the throat of the problem and began a massive modernisation project, and the keystone for the infantryman was the adoption of a new rifle, to be deveolped by the Springfield National Armoury.

While theoretically fine rifles, the Krag ran afoul of it's loading gate mechanism in combat, in particular the Spanish-American War made it's cumbersome nature prominent against the Spanish Mausers(notably The Battle for San Juan Hill). The Springfield Model 1903 came out of the US Army's need for a new infantry rifle to replace the M1892 Springfield Krag Rifles. The rifle has a replacement SA barrel dated '6-39'.
