Unveiling the Untold Secrets Behind the 1922 Springfield Rifle Series – A Historical Revelation by Michael Raborn MD
We will see the improvements of the initial design to eventually produce three models of 22 caliber rifles, each better than its predecessor. These improvements were not linear, always involving parallel lines of development that led back into the main line of concern, that is, an improved weapon. These parallel lines of development will include the initial design work on the first model, the Model 1922 Springfield. Next, we will witness the creation of the first and only 22 rimfire caliber International Match rifle ever produced at Springfield. We will see multiple personalities involved in the final push to perhaps the best 22 caliber rifle of the time, the M2 Springfield. Along the way perhaps the most unlikely project will involve the development of a new high velocity, small caliber centerfire varmint cartridge, the 22 caliber Springfield Hornet.
