Yes, I have one installed in my Authenticated WWII Springfield 1903 and my WWI Mauser. It's called a "Micro Tracker Miniature GPS Tracker". Here is the website for your reference. To install it will take a little woodworking and maybe some minor gunsmithing depending on where you are going to place it. Good luck and I hope this helps.

I bet that devalued the rifle cause it is now altered and is no longer stock.

Not really, I placed the GPS tracker node underneath the internal magazine spring plate. In addition, I do not fire these two rifles, they are maintained but are part of my collection. I ensured that anying I did would not devalue or impair the weapons ability to fire and could be undone simply by knowing where to look and what to remove. As far as the two rifles I cited above, everything I did was done using only my hands, no tools needed and nothing damaged or modified. Do you really think I would screw with either of these two rifles like that, come on. :)

It would work perfectly. You would need to remove the recoil pad and you can attatch it using a double-sided tape or heavy duty/commercial grade velcro. If you know that you're not going to get ride of the rifle, you can make it more permanent by using a super/crazy glue or an epoxy resin and glue it into place., like onto the inside of the recoil pad itself.

There is a GPS tracker that you can install in your rifle that it will enable it to be retrieved incase it gets lost. You need to visit the local tracking companies in your area so that they can advice you on the best tracker to use. Check out http://www.atlanticfirearms.com/category.aspx?cid=152 and http://www.portmansecurity.com/by-industry-law-enforcement.php for more information.
