Additional Notes: The Eddystone Model 1917, also known as the Model 1917 Enfield, is a bolt-action rifle that played a significant role in World War I and beyond. Produced by the Eddystone Arsenal, it was one of the American variants of the British Pattern 14 rifle. Chambered in .30-06 Springfield, it became the standard-issue rifle for American Expeditionary Forces in WWI. The rifle featured a Mauser-style bolt system, robust construction, and a five-round internal magazine. Its design allowed for efficient mass production, contributing to its widespread use during the war. After the conflict, many were rechambered for the .30-06 round and used as training rifles or repurposed for civilian hunting. The Eddystone Model 1917 remains a historically significant firearm, emblematic of the collaboration between American and British arms production during the First World War.
