While visiting the in-laws this weekend we started talking about military firearms. I have a very small collection, so that seems to make me the "expert" in the family. This time my father-in-law said he wanted to show me his dad's "30.06 rifle". I was expecting some kind of hunting rifle when he handed me this Springfield. Needless to say I was surprised.

I know from a cursory look through the forum here and Google, that the action at least was/is a '03 Mark 1. Beyond that I have no idea if anything is original. Reading through the posts here it seems to be a hit or miss on original parts, but I figured that you all would be able to provide much more information than I could figure out.

The stock is the thing that stands out to me as non-original, or at least refinished. I couldn't find any markings on it. This is just idle speculation though. I really have no clue about Springfields.

Thanks to anyone on the assist!
