I'm looking for a Springfield 1903. More because it's what my grandfather carried in WWII than anything. He simply wouldn't give it up...

If I was only going to get one, is a Springfield more desirable than other manufacturers? Or, are they all consider pretty equal?

Would love to find something similar to what the Marines carried but from what I can see, it's not an easy thing to do or verify.
