Built on the M1 platform, this gas-operated, semi-automatic rifle uses a rotating bolt and an internal box magazine fed by 8-round en-bloc clips. It automatically ejects the clip after the last round, and loads from the top through the clip slot.
The receiver is forged and heat-treated steel with a parkerized matte grey/green finish, complemented by walnut stock and handguards in an oil-type military finish. The stock has a straight comb with a semi-pistol-grip profile and a 13.0" length of pull.
Sighting is via iron sights: an aperture rear with windage and elevation knobs, and a protected front post. The right-side operating rod serves as the charging handle, staying true to the classic M1 manual of arms.
The gas cylinder assembly includes a stacking swivel and front sling swivel, and this rifle comes ready for the range or display with the installed M1907-style leather sling. The 1942 year of manufacture places it squarely in the WWII era of Springfield Armory production.
