Thanks for the reply. I have a 1903 with a C stock coming. You can order 1903A4 rifles from the CMPicon and they come from Creedmoor Sports. They sell the same Hi-Lux scope that Amazon has, they sell it for $529 and offer an upgrade where they go through the scope for $76 more plus shipping. The only thing I read bad about the scope is the screws are cheap. The few gunsmiths I found online so far say they use different bases. The guy who does my FFL transfers is a gun builder and says he will go over the scope for me so I ordered one through Amazon with free next day shipping. I have gone online and read up on how these builds have gone, they all seem happy with their rifles. My next step is finding a gunsmith with experience building these guns and sending my rifle to them. On the Warpath website he will modify the handguard or you can buy one already modified. I will try and get a hold of Chuck at Warpath.
