New Remington 1903 (picture heavy)

[Calfed]

Last winter I got this Remington 1903 at an on-line estate sale. The description advised that the gun was "covered in grease" and boy they weren't kidding.
We finally had a hot spell out here with multiple consecutive days over 100 degrees and I took the opportunity to use my "solar cosmo remover".

What I found under all that grease was a pleasant find: full C stock, HS barrel gauging a bit less than "1" on the CMP muzzle gauge, bolt wouldn't close on a field gauge, and metal finish in great shape.







A few oddities--bolt with numbers ep'd on the handle


Partial serial number stamped on the buttstock


few odd cartouches on the stock
