Springfield Firearms

First, black powder is poured down the barrel, followed by a wad (usually a paper product to hold the gunpowder in place) and then the bullet. The whole assembly is pressed by the ramrod gently. Next, the musket must be primed. If it is a cap and ball musket, the primer is in a cap on the hammer, or hit by the hammer. If it is a flintlock musket, the primer must be manually poured into the primer pan.

You need to know the age of the gun. Use the serial number to research the date of manufacture. I'm not sure exactly when the mandatory steel shot laws came into effect but I know it wasn't in the 70's when I started duck hunting but it has been in effect at least 15 years. If it's older than 1990 I wouldn't. You can always ask a gunsmith or the manufacturer. I just checked. They stopped making that model in the early 70's so it's barrel is not approved for steel shot.

Greetings! The value of any fire arm can vary significantly based on several factors. First and most important is the condition. A Stevens C S R in excelent condition can be worth up to $450.00. On the other hand the same gun on poor condition could fetch as little as $50.00 to $100.00 depending if it is funcional or not. Hope this helps & Good luck

I have an 1896 .30-40 carbine, and have found that the only way I have an ajustment to the horizontal bullet strike on the target is to just "tap" the front sight in the direction you want the bullet to strike the target. My rifle is "sighted in" to be on target at 200 yards when using 180 gr. "core-loks". I figured the Army had taken this into consideration when having the rear sight set for 300yard battle sights. I hold the front sight at the 6 o`clock position on a 6" Bulls Eye at 200 yards, and, even at my age of 69, manage to get acceptable results in the "bulls-eye". Plenty good for "White Tails" in this area. ( Don`t figure these carbines and rifles were intended for target rifles).

The value of a US Springfield Armory M922M11 bolt-action rifle can vary significantly based on its condition, rarity, and market demand. Generally, these rifles can range from $300 to $800, with pristine or rare models potentially fetching higher prices. It's best to consult recent sales data, local gun shops, or online auction sites for a more accurate valuation. Additionally, having the rifle appraised by a qualified expert can provide further insight into its worth.

The bayonet designed specifically for the M1 Garand also had the nomenclature of M1. However, prior to 1943, M1905 and M1942 bayonets were used. There was also the M1905E1 bayonet, which were older M1905 and M1942 bayonets which had been recalled, had the blade shortened to 10 inches, and were reissued.

The value of a Springfield Armory M1 .30 Carbine can vary significantly based on factors such as its condition, age, and whether it has original parts or modifications. Generally, prices can range from around $600 to $1,200 for a standard model, with rare or excellent-condition examples potentially fetching higher prices. Collectors often consider historical significance and provenance, which can also influence the worth. It's advisable to check current market listings or consult a firearms appraiser for a more accurate valuation.
