Recent purhase-Possible 1903 Match Rifle?
New to the site but have been a looker for a while.First post and I have some questions.
Recently picked up an 03 rifle with a 7-25 dated barrel by Sprinfield Armory.Star gauge mark at the six o'clock position and hooded front sight.Serial number 1269348.Bolt is polished.There are scope blocks too.Rear one mounted on the reciever ring and the front is mounted in front of the rear site.Hand guard has been mortised to accomodate the block and also has been shaved down for a lower profile.
I have yet to take the handguard off..See no markings on stock except a large S on the end of the forearm wood in front of the bayonet lug.I know I will need to post some pictures and if I can get time this week I will.
Thanks for all the help.
