Springfield Firearms

I guess it depends on what weapon you're going for. Example, a small handgun you might need to whip out and pull in an instant.

I consider myself an amateur gun enthusiast but, for the most part, I think a person's usually better off with both features, DA/SA. SA for the easiest trigger pull and DA when you need it in the instant. Certain SA only pistols like the 1911 have sufficient safety features to leave the weapon cocked but a SAO revolver could be asking for trouble. For sport shooting, generally speaking, single action is the perfered method of discharging the firearm. Double action trigger pull, even on a highly tuned handgun, must compress the hammer spring. This action in itself tends to be somewhat disruptive of the sight picture, as such the single action mode is usually more acurate. In a self defence situation one usually does not have the time, or the presence of mind, to cock the gun, take a deep breath, let half of it out then get a good sight picture prior to pulling the picture. Double action wins gun fights. Single action wins trophys.

Springfield Arms was a trade name used by J. Stevens Arms and Tool Co beginning around 1920. After Stevens was pruchased by Savage Arms, that company continued making Springfield Arms rifles and shotguns until 1948.

Well honey, that shotgun was first introduced in 1959, so if it's been sitting in your grandpa's closet since then, you do the math. But hey, if it's in good condition, who cares how old it is? Just make sure you know how to handle it safely, okay?

Serial number 617,xxx Springfield model 1903 rifle was made in 1915 (1915 serial numbers were 595,601 to 660,121), the cartridge is a 30-06 Springfield (M1906). The original cartridge for the '03 was the 30-03 (.30 caliber, designed in 1903 and used a 220 grain bullet). In 1906 the army adopted the spitzer style bullet, reducing the weight of the bullet to 150 grains; the new cartridge became the 30-06. All '03's after 1906 were made for the 30-06. Note: The Springfield model 1903 rifle with serial numbers under 800,000 might have been made with improper heat treatment of the receiver (refered to as low numbers) and could shatter under firing pressure, causing injury.

They're different cartridges. The 7 mm Mauser a.k.a. 7x57 mm a.k.a. .275 Rigby, developed in year 1892 in Germany, uses a bullet of 7 mm / .284" in diameter, while the .30-06 is a 7,62 mm/.308" bore caliber. The .30-06 has a bigger case and thus is a bit more powerful. For all practical purposes, both calibers perform rather similar. They're versatile, accurate and highly successful in the game fields, provided the hunter behind the rifle does his job. For non-dangerous game hunted at reasonable ranges either one serves well.
