Some are not so "odd ball". I have several of these rifles, including a rod bayonet rifle and Sporter, etc. I wish I had them all.

I've seen & handled a arsenal stamped 1903A2 & a Mann accuracy bbl'd receiver in .22LR so they exist.

Here are some, seldom seen, 1901 receivers: 5~ 1901 type 2s & 1~ 1901 type 1

The only "oddball" M1903 I have at present is Rock Island #1293237, which I obtained last year. It is supposedly one of about 1200 manufactured with Rock Island markings but a Springfield serial number. I looked for one of these for a long time, after turning one down about four or five years ago.

Had one or two of the others, at one time or the other.

Six out of Ten. not bad! I'm still looking far a line throwing 1903 Springfield.
It did not make the list of odd-ball 03s
