I have been fortunate enough to find a Remington 03A4. The rifle itself seems to be in very good condition. It is a real 03A4 because the U.S. Remington 03-A3 is far to the left, and the serial number is far to the right, leaving room for the scope base to not obstruct viewing the stampings. The parkerizing is believed to be original, the bands and bolt are blued, which is original and correct. I very much want to restore this rifle. (I collect mostly Garands)
These are my problems:
1) The rifle has a front sight and hood on it, why? How hard is it to remove?
2) Where can I find a Redfield scope base? I have heard/read that the
redfield jr/ will work well, if so which variation?
3) What is the most accurate/best scope to put on this rifle? I have heard
that the Weaver 330 or the Lyman Alaskan are most correct. What
should I expect to pay for these items and where can I find them.
Any help would be appreciated. I can be reached @ ryancasada@yahoo.comInformation
