Description:
This is a rare, late WWII production (April,1945) Springfield Armory M1C Sniper rifle rebuilt by Springfield Armory during the Korean War (c. 1952) and fitted with a USMC Stith Kollmorgen MC-1 telescopic sight with special Griffin & Howe mount and rings. This rifle was originally one of the approximately 7,900 M1C Sniper Rifles manufactured by the SA from January-December 1945. The WWII production M1C rifles fall generally within the 3,250,000 - 3,790,000 serial number range. This rifle was rebuilt by Springfield Armory during the Korean War. Following the Korean War the Marine Corps adopted the 4X Kollmorgen MC-1 telescopic sight with a larger Griffin & Howe mount and one-inch rings for use on the M1C sniper rifles. The Marines designated these rifles as the "1952 Sniper Rifle" and issued them is limited numbers from c.1954-1967. Scope is marked 'TELESCOPE RIFLE, 4XD,MC-1' over 'KOLLMORGEN OPTICAL CORP'. The letters 'SER B105' are also hand etched on the side of the scope. The First Style MC-1 mount is parkerized and has distinctive angular locking levers. The top of the base is roll stamped "GRIFFIN & HOWE INC. NEW YORK/PAT. #1.856,549 MAY 3, 1932". Stock is in excellent condition but unmarked. Upper handguard has lacquer on it. Barrel is dated to June of 1953. Minty bore, ME & TE are both under 2. Comes with excellent leather sling and cone flash hider.
