Collecting the American Sniper Rifle, 1900 to 1945 provides accurate information that will allow the collector to determine whether or not a particular rifle or telescopic part or other accessory is correct and not a fake or misrepresented part sold on the internet.

The book provides a detailed description of . . .

1. the sniper rifle with all parts and markings that make it uniquely a U.S. military sniper rifle.

2. the telescopic sight with all parts and markings that make it uniquely a U.S. military sniper scope.

3. the bases and mounts with all parts and markings that make them part of the U.S. military sniper scope assembly.

The book also contains a history of the development of each particular sniper rifle and telescopic sight. Its mounting on the rifle and sighting in are described in detail. A history of the development of the rifle leading to its use as a sniper rifle is included in an appendix, as are descriptions of British and Canadian sniper rifles that used American-produced telescopic sights.
