Regarding the 3rd rifle, it may have been sporterized back in the 1950s or 1960s. M1903s were very common and relatively cheap. It was very common to sporterize them.
Calling the third rifle sporterized would be very charitable... I think Bubbaized would be a much better term.
The two drilled and tapped holes for the Lyman Receiver sight, I can tolerate. In fact, having a receiver sight installed on a rifle, with a scope mounted as a primary sighting device, can be a hunt saver if you damage your scope.

Thanks for the tip. I checked the stock recoil bolts with a magnifying glass, and, they are staked... So, it looks like I will have to get three or four sets.
