Recently I acquired a sporterized Remington 03A3 without knowing to much about the rifle, but it seemed like a good deal at, $275. The rifle is flawless, the barrel is not beat up and unlike a lot of sport versions, the original ghost ring sights left on the gun with no drilling or taping for a scope.
After some research on the gun I'm looking at taking the new stock off and bringing it back to it's original glory. But i was hoping that I could find out a little more about the rifle before investing the money to do it right.
If anyone could help me with the history of the gun and let me know if it was possibly used in the war or the story behind these rifles. The serial number on the rifle itself is 34701XXX with 2-43 stamped at the front of the barrel underneath an RA stamp.
The only thing changed on this rifle was the stock, is it worth the investment to change it back and restore the history?Information
