1903 Mark I Purchase

[fitch10]

Hello,

I bought my first Milsurp rifle a couple weeks ago and have questions about the bolt and the overall rifle.

My main worry is that the bolt may not be safe to shoot. The only marking I see on the bolt is under the safety lug. It's an S marking. It's also a straight bolt.
The s/n of the rifle is 10572xx (is it OK to post the full s/n?).

The barrel is marked SA 7-30.

Someone removed the rear sight and installed a Redfield peep sight. I believe it's the Hunter model.

I'll try to post some pictures.

Thanks
