You mean WW2? All the rifles that went over to the AEF would have been low-number.
WW2, yes they did...as with the Brewster Buffaloes, it was because they had to, as the Marines got the hind teat for Navy funding. They did made them work, from all indications...they rebuilt them to stringent specs (like replacing bolts with new ones, regardless of condition) and banned them from firing rifle grenades.
Many a star-gauged USMC National Match rifle was rebuilt for service or sniper duty and used up on Guadalcanal....
No, I mean WWI. The Marines had 03’s and most of the Army was armed with 1917 Enfields.
