I bought a sporterized Remington 03A3 (3,943,XXX with original 8-43 barrel) a couple years back and have it back to original set up, minus the bayonet lug. I picked up a nice clean parkerized "R" stamped lug from Sarco and I think it's a repro. It strips the threads off the screws every time I try to attach it to the tip of the stock. I have purchased screws from various places so I'm thinking it's the lug. Is there a way to tell a fake? Or where to get an original? All help will greatly appreciated.
