What was the most issued us rifle in World War 1?
The Model 1917, usually called an "American Enfield". The standard rifle was the M1903 Springield, but production of these could not be increased enough to provide one for all men, as they were made only at government arsenals. When the war had started in 1914 the British were desperate for rifles for their forces, and had contracted with several American civilian firearms manufacturers to produce a few million of their standard Enfield rifles in .303 caliber. It took a long time for the factories to tool up for this and none were delivered before 1915. By that time the British had solved their production problems and no more were needed from America. When the US entered the war it was fairly simple to alter the design of the British Enfield to take the standard US .30-06 round, and more Americans fought with this rifle than with the Springfield. Sergeant York performed his Medal of Honor feats with an Enfield, despite Gary Coooper in the movie.
When was the rifle first used in warfare?
Rifles were first used in warfare on a significant scale in the American Revolutionary War, when the Ferguson rifle was issued to a special corps of riflemen raised in 1777 from light infantry companies of the British army in the colonies. By the Napoleonic wars (1803 to 1815), the rifle became more widespread, with the British Army raising special regiments of riflemen and issuing riles to the light companies of regular infantry regiments. Other armies adopted the rifle as well, either in similar specialized units or issued to chosen marksmen in regular infantry units. By the 1850s, the rifle (specifically the muzzle-loading "rifled musket") displaced the smoothbore musket as the standard infantry weapon. This was the standard weapon on both sides of the American Civil War.
