    Smile Signed 1903 pics as promissed

    WELL, I FINALLY got it home, now I am posting this pics, so I can get honest opinions and info, as to weather the proof marks and cartouches look real and look accurate for that stock type. Remember, I only got in this rifle what a low number 1903 cost, the signatures are just and added cool factor, thats all...

    Many thanks,
    and Like I said, I don't have a lot in it either. So the cool factor, feels even cooler without having to spend a lot for it. Maybe some of the pro's here can tell me more about the Cartouches, and other identifying marks, thanks for the reply APOS, makes it feel worth while when other people like it too. But I really like it, so that's the good part about it.

    I woul say the value would be what the rifle would fetch (a LN mixmaster, say, $400-500) plus a small premium for the signatures.

    You have some really nice looking Garands also. The wood looks brand new. I only have one from the CMPicon and the wood is pretty beat. I have never bought another set for it.

    Anybody know what those cartouches are and if they are real, I havent seen a lot of these rifles that still had any on them, so I got nothing to compare it to.
    ALSO, THANKS so much for the comments on the display. I know it isn't much, but I got room for more as time goes on. I like to add stuff along the way, so I guess it's a work in progress, even if it's kind of a small display.

    The four-letter stamp is Agustra Arsenal, the other, I believe is Anniston, but I admit that always gives me CRS problems. They both look legit.
