Hi All,

Here are a bunch of pictures of an M1903A3 I inherited:

http://linxnet.com/misc/guns/03A3/

The -sm pictures are bandwidth-friendly, scaled-down versions. The -lg ones are the original, full-size (some very large) ones.

Wondering what the various cartouches, stamps, etc. mean, any dating information, your assessment of its condition (near as you can tell from my amateur photography , and what the rifle may be worth.

I'd posted this question on the old Joustericon forums last summer, but, fool that I am, I neglected to make note of the answers and now that forum's data is no more. All I remember was something about the bolt being one of the more rare ones and nobody knowing what the "SS" cartouche meant. IIRC, estimates at the time were $550 to $750 for its value?

I apologize for asking y'all the same thing all over again , and appreciate your help.

Thanks!
