That is just not true, the 30-06 does not have enough pressure to do that. Without something to raise the pressure like a bore obstruction, the stock will most likley split, the extractor might blow...

I looked at your new pictures and think you have a fine rifle. The work is both professional and well done. I do not recognize the workman but feel I have seen this work before. As I have time...

Well I've found rifles in the most unlikely places like the cased Gibbs 1903 pictured below which came from....are you ready.....Victoria, BC.

Nice looking rifle, it would help to see BIGGER pictures along the lines of your first picture. Also please take one of the bottom of the checkering on both the forend and pistol grip.

Not a bad looking rifle, maybe with better (clear) pictures I might change my mind but looks post-war German to me.

I do not recognize the maker but well worth restoring. Not many folks left on the rear sight collar and sight after the teens. An interesting early custom sporter worth saving.

On the ones that show a clear picture, yes!

Here is a little story on the scope on Mr. Niedner's rifle.

I've been thinking about your sight and wounder if you have looked at what 48 fit the Winchester 54?

I apologize that I just don't have time to do proper research. The crossbar is flat (like a Mauser) but the base is not cut for the clip slot which is found on both the Mauser and 03. I hope this...

I remember when the sight was for sale because I'm always looking for the long-slide ones.

I don't have time to dig out all my books and papers on the Lyman 48's but I did not bid because the...

The only thing I have to offer is that when your working with under 1/2 MOA always push the scope back into battery with your left index finger and don't pull it back.

A few years ago I...

The Griffin and Howe mount appears to be professionally mounted could have been done by Griffin and Howe.

The stock, the bolt work and the bluing are not Griffin and Howe.

A nice little sporter...

Griffin and Howe scope mounts were put on thousands of rifles. Without good pictures there is no way for me to say anything about your rifle. How is the base attached to the rifle? If you can see...

Speaking of unique Lyman sights this is purported to have been made for the Argentine Navy Mauser 1909. I've never found anyone who has ever seen one of these or knows anything about it.

The Lyman 34 was used a lot on 1903's until the Lyman 48 was introduced in 1911. I don't see these very often on a 1920 vintage rifles. I would be very interested in seeing an overall picture of...

"Nice custom stock," That is the original Armory stock that has been reshaped and checkered.

Does the slide go to 125 or 150?

In my edition it's figure 17 to the left of page 93.

Yes, A very well known rifle, stocked by Linden.

I’ve never owned a 1903 sporter that was built using the military stock but could not help myself on this one.
Busy day today will report on it in a day or two.

It’s a .250-3000 Savage Niedner barrel Sedgley stock and action.

Not a bad old sporter, I'm not a military collector but looks like it could be restored. Did they cut the stock off for the recoil pad?

A lot of these around, a local moose hunter traded in his...
