    1903 Springfield NRA Sporter serial # 1366559

    Just purchased a 1903 Springfield NRA Sporter # 1366559 10/30 on the barrel everything is correct does anyone have a book listing the serial numbers?

    I am also new to this computer stuff and struggling with what everything means here.

    Thanks Dave NMN

    Yep, a hit -- listed as an NRA Sporter, sold May 22, 1931.

    Remember the rule -- pictures or it didn't happen!

    Dear Rick Thanks for your help!! Everything is correct about it. I will give it a good cleaning and fire it this weekend. I never dreamed I would get the chance to touch one let alone own one!!
    Thanks again Dave NMN

    I owned a "used" one and then obtained one modified by Griffin & Howe in the 1930s. One of my favorite 1903!
