In the summer of 1944, as Allied forces fought through Normandy, British and Canadian snipers faced a deadly disadvantage. Their trusted Lee–Enfield rifle carried a hidden flaw — a heavy, creeping trigger that made long-range precision deadly difficult.

While German snipers armed with the Karabiner 98k achieved devastating first-shot hits, Allied marksmen often needed multiple shots — a fatal delay that revealed their position.

Military experts declared the problem unsolvable.

But one civilian gunsmith, Harold Bowman, believed otherwise.

With a simple geometric modification costing just three shillings and 45 minutes of work, Bowman improved accuracy by 65% — without compromising reliability. Initially rejected by the War Office, his innovation would go on to reduce sniper casualties by 60% and nearly double confirmed kills during the Normandy campaign.

This is the untold story of innovation, leadership, and the courage to challenge institutional dogma in WWII.
