A co worker just called me up to ask me if I was interested in a list of firearms his neighbor has for sale (older guy moving to a retirement community from a large house) among the list was a Springfield 30-06 in military trim. Granted I could have used a LOT more info. But I did get that it has the folding leaf style rear sight (so not an O3-A3) and that both the stock and sights look to be all original. So hopefully not sportsterized in any way.
The best part is the old boy also has a military trim 8mm Swedishmauser and he will sell both for $200.00 My buddy is interested in the mauser and I told him to get back over there and get all the info on the Springfield as I have CASH.
So I'm waiting to hear back.
I sold off my beautiful 03-A3 years back when I had to pay a bill and have been wanting to fill that military bolt action slot in my little collection ever since.
At this price even if some restoration is needed I will be way ahead of the game.
Wish me luck.Information
