Hello Gents, well over the weekend I traded an epoxy bedded M1903A3/A4 post war replacement C stock for an unissued Springfield Armory 8-42 replacement barrel with the rear sight collar installed. I have not seen these in some years and I am debating with myself weather to start a project with it or sell it to fund other M1icon / M1903 accessories etc. Checking out the auctions it appears the only vintage M1903 barrels on the market are badly worn take offs, so I think it may fetch a fair penny if I thru it to the wolves. On the other hand, how hard would it be to come up with a reciever or an m1903 with a ruined barrel and hence build a top notch shooter? My current two M1903's have near new barrels as it is so I doubt I would ever need it for them. Any input would be great, as I am not sure which way to go.

Semper Fi, Rob
