Hybrid M1914/17 Enfield rifle

The American M1917 Enfield is part of the Sniper rifle DLC pack. It's described in game for being known as the "American Enfield". The game, however, modeled the rifle with the lower receiver of the M1917, but with the scope mount and stock of the British P14. It should be noted that no sniper variants of the M1917 were used by American snipers, the majority being M1903A4 rifles. The P14 was known for having an telescopic scope attached, but fires the British .303 instead of the American .30-06.
