A 1903A3 stock would not be correct for the OP's rifle.

Your Remington Rand went through an arsenal overhaul at Springfield Armory. There is no way the current barrel is original to your pistol. Some Colt and SA barrels were used in very early production,...

The slide was altered for the target sights, but the slide isn't original to the frame anyway. You could correct the gun, but it will probably cost more than the gun will be worth in the end.

Your 1938 Colt would have been shipped with its matching numbered slide. Colt stamped the gun's serial on the slide until sometime just before ser# 1,140,000. The gun would have been blued and the...

RLB cartouche is too early for a 3.3mil Remington 1903. My 3.2mil Remington has an unboxed FJA with reenforcing pins rather than bolts.

Comparing the OP's rifle to a relatively close serial numbered rifle in Scott Duff's data sheet book, most of the parts shown in the photos are correct. I believe the barrel date is significantly too...

The scabbard should have a matching serial number. There are many Chinese made fake NCO swords on the market.

Your Remington Rand was buffed and re-finished by parkerizing. The original finish was Dulite Blue.

Carbines are still legal here in California, but not in the paratrooper stock. That would make it an assault weapon.

What is the serial number range? With no Government inspection markings, I'm guessing it's a later gun in the 40k serial number range, which would be correct.

The OP's carbine definetly went through rebuild and it looks like a previous owner tried to correct it by adding some W coded parts. Enjoy it for what it is.

Rack number

I didn't look at all your photos, but I see some mixed parts, so your carbine probably went through a rebuild or had parts changed during maintenance. The stock was most likely replaced with one that...

The whole gun looks like original finish to me. Never heard of tumbling slides.

Sounds like the guy with a business called SOG. He sets up at the Southern Calif. shows with a lot of questionable USGI rifles and pistols at very high prices.

Sorry, but I don't see how anyone could give an accurate assessment of any of those items with the photos provided.

I think my point was missed. Your carbine looks like an un-messed with, fresh from re-build carbine. These nice re-builds are becoming more collectable. By replacing current parts with correct...

Just my opinion, but I think you should leave that carbine alone. It looks like a nice, early post WWII re-build that has probably not been messed with. It looks to have been refinished during...

I have a substantially original Winchester in the 5.598mil range. It was in an Inland stock/hand guard when I bought it almost 20 years ago, but I added a correct stock and hand guard. The barrel...

It looks like someone's attempt at a restoration. Even though there are several WRA parts, not all are correct for your serial number range. Winchester's are desirable to many, even those that have...

The receiver and barrel appear to have their original finish, which is in nice shape. What is the make-up if the rest of the parts?

My 4.583 mil range IHC has it's original 1-54 barrel and what I believe are many of it's original parts. I discussed my rifle with Wayne Bradford on the old CSP forum some years back. Based on barrel...

Just curious why you think a Mk 1 rifle should not be shot. I am aware of the serial number ranges of brittle receivers from SA and RIA, but Mk 1's are above the cutoff number for SA produced...

Looks like a Luger that was used by the East Germans post WWII.

The peening on my Case M4 is the same as Johnny's. I also have my grandfather's Case M3 knife and the peening is the same as well.
