    i believe the serial numbers might be that of a factory match rifle and maybe the capped base holes were original? not sure why they would have been filled , does anyone know of a way i can trace the serial number to find out what type of 1903 this originally was. also was this an original military rifle later converted to use in military matches or was this a civilian model 1903?

    I checked the serial number, the receiver was made in 1922 for a standard military M1903.
