My Sporter 03A3 needs a new stock.
Anyone have any input on this one ?

No direct input, but for a long time, Boyds had a very poor reputation for M1903 military stocks. Maybe they've cleaned up their act.

DuPage Trading bought a new '03 patten stock for Boyd's use. It is a pre-war pattern and is great. Buy one right now!

So The Boyds Stock I linked to should be OK for the 03A3 ?

[Chuckindenver]

came out very nice.
