They are busy filling orders. I have been placing inquiries since last January on purchasing a replica scope and rings. Here is this months response:
The parts will not be available until all the backorders
for the distributors are filled, please check back with
us late November - December. Sorry.
If you would like to see what one looks like a link to this auction was posted here last week.

The auction description is misleading. These are not refurbished M1903A4's they are refinished M1903A3 drill rifles, with a replica scope, new manufactured barrel and stock, and an after market low-scope bolt.
For the money it would be very difficult to recreate an equivalent A4 clone if you were starting from scratch. Reenactors or anyone who is just looking for a representative piece could do worse.

good bad or otherwise, they will probably go up in price.
...
the seller tried $12K on this piece in June. About $8000. too high for a rebuild IMO. Then again P.T. Barnum may be alive and well somewhere....Quote:
