Have a 1903A4 that is a rebuild. The Redfield base has a R in a circle on the right side front as apposed to the Redfield marking on the right rear. Have not seen anything on this and am wondering if...
Thanks John! I knew the stacking swivel was for an A3. The bolt is marked H0 35 on top. No pic, spaced as you see. I thought the Smith Corona had a X on the top. ?????
Here are some pics of my latest find. This is the rifle I was trying to get a value on and thanks to the folks here I made the purchase. Have some questions to the stock. Appears to be a Remington by...
Interesting! Thanks for the info John.
Thanks for your insight. You are so helpful. I will be purchasing that rifle. Try to post some pics for you after I have it. Thanks again Rick!
Sounds like yours has an original barrel for the time frame. If I read Ferris correctly he mentions that a relatively few receivers were stamped Rock Island Arsenal but were not serialized. Is that...
Rick, Thanks for the reply. Rifle clearly marked Rock Island Arsenal. Serial No. 1293139
I have a chance at a RI 1903 with a serial number in the 129xxxx range. The rifle has gone thru a rebuild with a 11/42 SA barrel. S stock with no GG. FJA & crossed canons marking. Very nice piece. I...
LOOKING FOR SRS INFO ON A MARK1 SERIAL #1064090. THANKS!
I am honored that he replied to my post. Info I can find no place else. Thank You So Much!
Thanks for the replies. A little confusing at times. By the way "Thanks Rick" for the info in a recent e-mail I sent to you. Took your advice and found this one. Cheaper and I am much happier. Thanks...
Where did you get your serial no info from. The list I looked at says after 1919 and my serial number is lower than yours. Barrel date R.I. 10-18
Looking for mfg date of a R. I. rifle. Serial no. 326957. Between Bowar's & Old Guns I am getting confused. Any help would be great! Thanks:surrender:
Have a Long Branch mfg Enfield that was made in 1943. Serial no 56L7473. Has a CMk3 stamped ladder sight. Is this the correct sight for this rifle or a later replacement. Appears all matching except...
No. Definitely RA for Remington. FJA and crossed canons.
Rick, I have a SC in a Remington stock with stock pins that is stamped RA. Do you have a serial number range for that as I want to trade for a SC stock if I can find one. It does have the winter...
I am speechless at this point. It will go down to my son and grandsons. I have a RC that I paid about $400. for. That kind of luck don't come my way very often! Thank you for your insight.
I bought this thru a private party that had a lot of hunting rifles. This was the only milsurp on the list and was just listed as a M98. When I saw it was a numbers matching gun I jumped on it not...
Here are a few more pics. Other than these there are no other markings!
Just bought this K98 Mauser. Appears to be all matching numbers with no import marks. Has a mirror bore and in nice condition. How did I do?
Has there been any issues with other importers? I have a M1 Garand stamped by EXEL/GARDNER, MA. Sounds similar as it has been refinished and came with an NM op rod. Gun seems to be alright but it...
Did a reply to Long Branch serial no. listing and found that my rear sight is not a CDM MKIII. I have a CMk3 on my 56L7473 No4 MK1. Assuming this is not a correct sight for this year (1943) when was...
Have a No4 Mk1* Long Branch w/CMk3 sight & steel buttplate. SN 56L7473 dated 1943:beerchug:
Being new to the K98, can anyone tell me when the front sight hood came into play? Am under the impression the front sight would be grooved to accept the hood? Have a 147 1940 (SAUER) RC with no...
Thanks Sarge! Looks to be a C or G under the serial number. Is that what you are referring to?:dunno:
