[quote="9mm*BeRetTa~":9196f]Isnt that the normal scope on the spr? im not to fond of the color that you made it but, w/e. Hey i just noticed, i was in that server with you last night while you tested.[/quote:9196f]

That scope is just about correct for the M73B1 2.5x that was mounted on the 1903-A4

The Game lists the rifle as an 03' which is technically correct.. But the fist 1903's were rarely used in WWII as they were the standard service rifle of the U.S. military from 1903 till the late 1930's

By early 1942 the 1903 was modified. These included changing the barrel bands, sling swivels, buttplate, and triggerguard from machined to stamped. When the rear sight was moved from the area in front of the receiver to the rear receiver bridge the rifle’s designation was changed from Model 1903 Modified to Model 1903A3.

03-A4's (sniper) were a 1903A3 specially modified for use as a sniper rifle with the addition of a M73 or M73B1 2.2X telescope.And shved front sight.
