    Sportered 03A3

    Recently picked up a sportered 1917 and 1903A3. Both look like they can be re militarized fairly easily:

    The 1917 is an Eddystone, with a High Standard barrel. The bore gauges just over a "0" on the CMPicon muzzle gauge and is shiny with strong rifling. The bolt will not close on a field gauge.




    The 03A3 is in a nice looking maple stock. Hasn't arrived yet, but is described as being a Remington with metal intact and having a Smith Corona barrel with a "very good bore" . Came with a nice looking leather sling



    Plan is to re-militarize them when I can find the wood.
