1903 Springfield as a gift.

[ricofardan]

Hi all,

I've been a member for 5+years but have ben away in K98 land for a long time. I have been a collector for 45 years. Recently a long time friend of mine passed after a prolonged illness. Before he died he gifted me a 1903 Springfield and I wanted to post the data and maybe get some input.

Serial is 870057 with a 11-42 SA barrel. It has a swept back bolt wtht a "r" underneath the bolt handle. The stock has no finger grooves or pistol grip and a single "P" behind the trigger guard. Also a AA B in a box. The finish is dark park and the bore condition is strong with lots of shine.

I don't know much about the rifle but am proud and honored to own it. Good to be back. I will post some pictures when I figure out how to do it.

Rico
