There is only 1 way to convert the Kar98Sniper scope to the Springfield scope. And that is by renaming the weapon inside the Kar98Sniper.tik file. You cannot simply edit the .tga file. The scopes are mapped differently, so that if you edit the .tga file, you will just get garbage in return. If you decide to rename the weapon inside the .tik file, you will most likely cause the animations for that gun to not show up at all, but you will get the scope that you desire. The reason that the G43 has the allied scope is because it is not using the name Kar98-Sniper in the .tik file. That name alone tells the game to use the german scope. So in the end, you most likely will be stuck with the german scope.

Good luck.
