The Springfield 1903 Air Service Rifle was a unique WWI adaptation, developed as a backup for aviators due to the lack of suitable semi-automatic rifles in .30-06. It featured a distinctive 25-round magazine, a cut-down stock and handguard, and a modified buckhorn-style rear sight for rapid aerial engagement. While bolt-action, its design aimed to provide a higher volume of fire than standard infantry rifles in a specific combat role.
