As of my last knowledge update in October 2023, the Springfield Meteor .22 rifle is no longer in production. This model was manufactured primarily in the mid-20th century, and while you might find used or vintage models for sale, new production has ceased. For current availability, checking with firearms dealers or classified listings might yield some results.

The US model 1898 Krag Jorgenson rifle was chambered for the 30-40 krag cartridge.These are still loaded by remington arms company.
No. The 1903 Springfield was initially chambered in the 30-03 cartridge, later modified to the 30-06 cartridge. The latter cartridge is still manufactured and very popular. Virtually all firearms after 1895 shoot smokeless powder.
Your Springfield model 1873 rifle which was made in the year 1883 will generally bring between 650-1,000 dollars,depending on the overall condition of your rifle.This is assuming that it is still in a all military finish,and has a bore that is in good condition.
The .308 Winchester caliber is considered a short action cartridge. It has a case length of 2.015 inches, which allows for a shorter overall rifle design compared to long action cartridges, such as the .30-06 Springfield. This makes .308 rifles generally lighter and easier to handle, while still providing effective performance for various shooting applications.
I have a 12 ga 67F, 28" modified that I bought in a pawn shop in 1973. Still shoots great after thousands of rounds. I paid $65 for it then.
I don't believe they still do.

The particles in a meteor shower are generally solid, until they smack into the Earth's atmosphere and actually become a "meteor shower". The meteor generally explodes, or vaporizes, or becomes plasma - but there are often still parts of the meteor that remain solid and impact the Earth.
