their powerful pneumatic guns by mak- ing them look like the flintlock firearms of the day. There are surviv- ing specimens of pneumatic guns that actually have a working flintlock mechanism intended to ignite a small charge of priming powder in order to enhance the realism of the piece. Airgun enthusiasts sometimes refer to these examples as “transitional” or “concealed” airguns. Indeed, their hollowed-out buttstocks concealed the air reservoir and, in some models, the side lock also served to trip the air valve within the gun during the firing sequence.

As the twentieth century began to unfold and airguns became widely ac- cepted, models patterned after specific cartridge firearms soon appeared. The usual practice was - and still is to some extent -to copy the military rifle of a given country. This is quite logical, in light of the fact that by the early 1900s certain types of airguns were already intended for use mainly by youngsters. Then, as now, there was something extra special for kids about an airgun that looked like the real thing.

One of the first airgun manufac- turers to bring out an air-powered copy of a military rifle was BSA in England. Their relatively powerful underlever spring-piston replica rifle was ap- propriately dubbed the “Military Pat- tern” model. It was a fairly faithful copy of the .303-caliber Lee-Enfield bolt-action rifle in use at that time by the British army and was produced be- tween 1906 and 1914. As air rifles go, the BSA “Military Pattern” was huge, measuring 48% inches overall, which indicates that its use was probably restricted to older teenagers and adults. This air rifle seems to have been used extensively in England to train military recruits, according to R.B. Townshend in his 1907 book, The Complete Air-Gunner. If so, this may well have been the first time that an airgun was employed by a miltary establishment as a marksmanship training aid, a practice repeated since with some frequency by other nations.

One of the all-time classic military look-alikes is the Haenel “Sport- modell” of 1933. This spring-piston gun

R i f l e 147 12

was designed by none other than the famous German small arms genius, Hugo Schmeisser, and it followed rather closely the looks and feel of the Mauser 98K rifle in service with the Wehrmacht throughout World War 11. The Model 33, by the way, utilized the same stock and rear sight as the Mauser and was intended mainly as a military trainer. It fired 4.4mm round lead shot from a detachable box magazine. Production of this model resumed a few years after the war, be- ing renamed the Sportmodell 49 by Haenel, which was by then located in communist East Germany.

In this country, the Daisy Manufac- turing Company, Inc. has been one major producer of firearm look-alike training airguns. Daisy’s “Spittin’ Image” line of youth BB guns has been around for decades, bringing forth almost exact duplicates of such famous rifles as the ’94 Winchester and the slide-action Remington “Fieldmaster.” In recent years Daisy has renewed its efforts in this direction, with the in- troduction of C0,-powered replicas of such popular handguns as the Beretta 92, Smith & Wesson models 29 revolver and 59-series autoloader, plus the legendary Colt .45 Auto. All of these replicas are marketed as the Power Line models 500,44,93 and 45, respec- tively. Except for the BB-shooting model 93, the rest shoot .17-caliber pellets and have rifled barrels.

For many years Crosman Air Guns was this country’s leading manufac- turer of firearm look-alikes, both in the long gun and handgun categories. Some of their most successful C0,- powered pellet and BB guns have been copies of world-renown firearms. The Crosman M-1 Carbine, for example, is now a desirable collector’s item. Only up close could one separate it from the real McCoy. Another highly prized Crosman model in the replica category is the Model 451, a .22-caliber pellet version of the venerable Colt .45 autoloader.

In the mid-1980s Crosman brought out yet another look-alike of a univer- sally recognized military arm. The Crosman A.I.R. 17 was a reasonably close copy of the M-16/AR-15 rifle and became a hot seller in short order. Regretfully, Crosman dropped the A.I.R. 17 from production a few years ago, no doubt trying to move away from the much-maligned “assault rifle” look. Another hugely popular firearm look- alike from Crosman that is still very much in production is the Model 357 CO, pellet revolver. The 357 is a

May-June 1993

faithful copy of the sleek Colt “F’ython” and has become one of the all-time top sellers in the Crosman lineup.

Yet another big winner for Crosman in the area of firearm twins is the Model 1008 Repeat Air, which was in- troduced only last year. The 1008 is a faithful replica of the lOmm Smith & Wesson self-loading pistol and can fire eight .177-inch pellets in quick succes- sion from its novel rotary magazine. Some three years ago, Crosman also brought out the Auto Air I1 BB re- peating pistol, an almost identical copy of the Automag .22 Magnum autoloader.

During the early 1980s there were several airgun manufacturers from overseas that tried to capitalize on the “black gun” or “assault rifle” look. The older Air Arms “Firepower” model from England, for instance, was not patterned after any specific assault rifle, yet looked so deadly with its all- black ABS stock that many observers could be easily fooled into thinking that this was, indeed, a modern military rifle. The same goes for the S1G-Hammerli Model 420 air rifle. Both of the above models utilized the spring-piston system cocked via a side lever, by the way.

Down in Brazil the firm of Amadeo Rossi has produced an air-powered copy of the FN battle rifle. The Rossi Modelo EB-79 is a spring-piston, barrel-cocking air rifle that has never been commer- cially available in the US., although it has apparently been used in Brazil as a military trainer. A few years ago the now-disappeared Sussex Armoury company of England produced a lim- ited number of their Jackal air rifles dolled up to look like AK47s. These air rifles were reportedly used as trainers by an undisclosed nation in the Mid- dle East.

One incredibly close look-alike that was available in the U.S. until a cou- ple of years ago, and one which I per- sonally enjoy plinking with, is the CO, pellet version of the French FA-MAS assault rifle. This .17-caliber pellet semiautomatic rifle has been used in France as a military trainer as well.

Airguns that look like well-known firearms add a certain special touch to recreational shooting activities around the home. These air or C0,-powered replicas offer a practical way to keep in shape when the real thing cannot be used. As training tools for the military and the police they also offer an easy, cost-effective method ofinitiating gun- shy recruits into the basics of safe gun handling and marksmanship. 0

Golden Alan M. Petrillo

ORLD WAR I1 was, as one com- W mander put it, “a rifleman’s war.” While great technological leaps were being made in all types of weaponry - air power, armor, field pieces, antitank guns - it was still the rifleman who eventually was called on to take and hold the ground. As a British general pointed out, it is the rifleman who has to “winkle the other fellow out of his hole” in order to win the battle.

One specialized means was through the use of snipers and sniping arms. Snipers in most armies of the period were regarded as elite troops, called on to perform miracles of shooting skills, under some of the most adverse and stressful situations.

The introduction of military sniping as we know it today, using a scoped sight mounted on a long arm, came during the American Civil War when Colonel Berdan of the Union Army let his sharp shooters loose on unprepared Confederate troopers. Snipers later came into their own during World War I, where the static warfare of trench fighting provided numerous oppor- tunities for the honing of sniping skills. During this period, elaborate “hides” and “loopholes,” that is, camouflaged firing points, were built into the trench fortifications in order to provide a measure of protection from counter- sniper fire.

World War 11, a conflict that reached into virtually every corner of the globe, provided endless opportunities for the deployment and use of snipers. Some theaters of war, however - notably the North African theater - tended to use snipers sparingly, due chiefly to the large expanses of open terrain and general lack of cover and concealment.

The Italian, European and Far Eastern theaters all offered nearly limitless possibilities for the use of snipers and sniping teams. Often, a small unit of determined snipers could hold up a much larger group of oppos- ing troops for many valuable hours,

and then slip away from the position, only to reappear in another harassing situation farther down the road.

Stealth, surprise and the use of con- cealment were three of the major qual- ities desirable in a good sniper, as well as the obvious one - excellent marksmanship.

U.S. snipers were some of the best equipped during World War 11, with the British snipers challenging them for that distinction. Depending on the theater of operations, GI snipers were issued camouflage jackets, uniforms or ponchos in either desert, forest or arctic patterns.

The United States had fought World War I with the Springfield Model 1903, .30-06 rifle fitted with the Model 1913 Warner and Swasey sight, as its snip- ing arm. After that conflict, it was upgraded to the Model 1903 A-4, the most distinctive change being the “C” type stock with a pistol grip. No front or rear sights were issued with this rifle, since it was fitted with a Model M73B1 3x telescope. The M73B1 was adjustable for elevation and windage by knobs and used a crosshair reticle.

It was secured on the rifle by a modified Redfield mount.

At the same time, the U.S. Marines were using the Model 1903 A-1 rifle with an Unertl8x scope. The scope was a very long model, susceptible to damage, so it was recommended to be kept in a specially designed carrying case when not mounted on the rifle.

The Garand rifle also had its sniper versions, the M1C and M1D. The former was standardized in June 1944 and was fitted with one of two sights, either a Lyman Alaskan (designated the M73) or a Weaver 330 (M73B1). The scope was secured to the rifle in a Grif- fin and Howe mount; a removable leather cheekpiece was laced onto the buttstock, and in 1945, a removable flash hider was added.

The M1D differs little from MlC, with the exception of the telescopic sight. A new scope mount, developed by Springfield Armory, was mounted on the barrel just forward of the receiver. The telescopic sight developed for the MlD, the M81, was basically the M73 scope with a rubber eyepiece and a

Rif le 147

crosswire reticle. The 2 . 5 ~ scope was adjustable for windage and elevation.

By retaining the rubber eyepiece, but changing the reticle to a tapered post, the scope became the M82. A postwar variant of the same scope was desig- nated the M84 and was used during the Korean War.

On the other side of the ocean, the British sniper probably carried the most equipment, and thus the heaviest load, of all snipers. In addition to his Dennison smock and two face veils, he carried camouflage creams, a compass, combat watch, two grenades, 50 rounds of .303 British ball ammunition, five rounds of armour piercing and five rounds of tracer. A canteen and ration for emergencies also were included in his kit.

The British began World War I1 with a holdover from the previous conflict as their sniping rifle, the Rifle Number 3 Mark 1 (TI. Basically a Pattern 14 rifle, it was fitted with a Pattern 1918 3x scope with a 7.5 degree of field. The British reticle was of the pointer and

crosswire type, a focusing sleeve was provided on the tube. While the Pattern 1918 scope had an elevation drum for zeroing the range, the deflection had to be handled optically by the sniper.

Another scope used on the P14 was the Aldis offset telescopic sight, which had the same focusing and elevation adjustment, but provided for deflection by using a fitting attached to the scope. The Aldis scope was mounted offset to

the bore of the rifle, while the Pattern 1918 was mounted over the bore’s centerline.

By 1942, a new sniper rifle was of- ficially introduced on the British List of Changes, although it had been issued to commandos and special troops a year before. This was the Lee Enfield Rifle Number 4 Mark 1 (T) .303 British fitted with the Number 32 Mark 1 telescopic sight. Basically, it was a specially accurized Number 4 Mark 1 rifle with base pads fitted to the receiver to take a large, cast mount with thumbscrews for attaching to the rifle. The rifle was fitted with a wooden cheekpiece, screwed to the top of the buttstock, and a revolving swivel in place of the front guard screw.

The Number 32 Mark 1 telescopic sight was the first of three scope types issued to British snipers during World War 11. The Mark 1 was 3x with a nine

British No. 4 Mark 1 (T) sniping equipment was issued in a wooden chest that was fitted with leather carrying straps. The telescopic sight was carried in either a metal carrying case or as in the second version (shown) a metal-reinforced canvas case. This rifle i s shown with the issue sling.

degree field of view and a sliding brass eyeshade as well as provisions for ad- justing elevation and deflection through exterior knobs.

The Number 32 Mark 2 scope was an improved version of the Mark 1, differ- ing mainly in the internal mechanism. The Mark 2 scope was externally the same as the Mark 1, except the eyeshade was omitted.

The Number 32 Mark 3, also 3x, changed the field of view and the eye relief to 8.5 inches and 2.5 inches, respectively. It was waterproofed, where its predecessors were not, and the lenses bloomed to improve light gathering.

The Number 4 sniping rifle was issued in a wooden chest with leather handles a t the balance point, while the scope was enclosed in a metal carrying case to prevent damage when dis-

38

mounted from the rifle.

In the Wehrmacht, sniper training placed emphasis on camouflage, con- cealment and prepared positions, as well as marksmanship. Four models of sniper rifles were used during World War I1 by the Germans, all in 7.92mm caliber. The first was the Kar 98k rifle with the ZF41 telescope. A special bracket, mounted on the left side of the rear sight base, secured the 6-inch scope. Windage was allowed for in the base of the mount and there was an in- ternal adjustment for elevation in the scope.

The reticle was a picket post and crosshair of the type favored by the Germans; magnification was 1 . 7 5 ~ and the eye relief was 14 inches. Because of the forward location of the scope the rifle could still be clip-loaded, although snipers rarely had thg opportunity to use rapid fire. The ZF41 and its mount were fitted with a special metal case

for protection when not on the rifle.

The Germans also used a standard 98k with a two-piece turret mount at- tached to it. The rear base on this rifle was mounted on the receiver bridge, while the front turret mount was screwed and soldered to the receiver itself. The 4x scope, the ZF42, had the mounts soldered directly on the tube. It was adjustable only for elevation, and windage was provided through the rear mount. A crossbar and picket post formed the reticle inside the scope.

The side rail mount Kar 98k was the third type of rifle used by German snipers. The mounting base was pinned and screwed to the left side of the specially milled receiver, while the mount itself had a single front locking lever to secure it to the base. The side rail sniper used the ZF42W 4x scope that had an internal adjustment for elevation. Windage was provided through the mount.

Rifle 147

The GEW 43 or Kar 43 was the semi- automatic German sniper rifle used during World War 11. The mounting base was actually a part of the right side of the rifle’s receiver that allowed a side bracket holding the ZF4 scope to be attached. This 4x telescopic sight had both internal elevation and wind- age adjustments, a rubber eyecup and a sunshade. When dismounted, the scope was carried in a wooden case.

In the Pacific theater, the Japanese sniper tended to work alone, although there are reports of some instances where they worked in pairs. Specially prepared positions and the ability to use camouflage were two of the hallmarks of the Japanese sniper. Japanese sniping rifles are often con- sidered inferior in both quality and per- formance to the firearms used by the Allies; nevertheless, in the steaming jungles, the Japanese sniper often ac- quitted himself we11 using these rifles.

The Arisaka Type 97 sniping rifle was adopted by the Japanese Army in 1937. Firing a 6.5mm projectile, the Type 97 carried a 2 . 5 ~ scope with a 10 degree field of vision. The scope was off- set to the left side of the rifle’s bore, be- ing attached to the receiver by a

dovetail base arrangement. A lever and spring locked the scope to the receiver mount.

As an aid to the sniper, the rifle car- ried a folding monopod under the forearm, although doubts have been raised concerning the effectiveness of this appendage. The rifle bolt handle, due to the location of the scope, was bent down.

Japanese snipers also used the Type 99 7.7mm Arisaka. Adopted in 1939, this was the standard Model 99 rifle with a 4x scope attached. Field of view was 20 degrees, and the scope carried a rubber eyepiece, due to the short eye relief. Neither of the Japanese scopes could be adjusted for windage, but elevation was catered for through the use of a sleeve on the scope.

On the Eastern front, four models of sniper rifles were used by the Russians, three bolt actions and a semiautomatic The first was the Moisin-Nagant Model 91/30 rifle with a 4x PE scope. This unusually heavy unit had an eye relief of 4 inches and internal windage and elevation adjustments. The mount was a dovetail base fastened over the receiver ring, and since it held the PE scope so high above the rifle’s bore, the

iron sights could still be used.

Another type of Russian sniper rifle essentially was the Model 91/30 with the PE scope in a side mount, fitted to a base on the left side of the receiver.

A third bolt action used by the Rus- sians was the Model 91/30 with the 3 . 5 ~ PU telescope. This scope was set up in a side mount on the left of the rifle. The PU scope had internal ad- justments and a very short eye relief.

The Tokarev Model 1940 was the only semiautomatic sniping rifle in the Russian inventory during World War 11. Fitted with the 3 . 5 ~ PU scope, the Tokarev receiver had a recess cut in ‘the bottom in order to attach the mount. The stamped mount was made of spring steel and had a single elevating post. All the Russian sniping rifles were chambered for the 7.62mm Russian rimmed cartridge.

The snipers of World War I1 were an elite group of soldiers, trained not only in superb marksmanship, but also in the fieldcraft skills necessary to see them through their assigned missions. Camouflage, concealment, stealth and cunning played a large part in the success or failure of the individual sniper. 0
