    New member & new purchase

    Hello,
    I'd like to introduce myself to the forum and to hopefully get some information regarding a 1903 rifle I purchased last weekend. After doing some research on the rifle I found the following:
    Receiver serial number:3236478
    Built by Remington. Number appears to coincide with a September 1942 build date.
    Barrel markings: 12-43 with the flaming bomb symbol.
    Stock appears to be a scant stock. Left side shows RIA enclosed in a rectangle.
    Initials:FK (Frank krack?)
    Proof mark on the bottom side of the stock.
    I'm unsure if this is a correct combination stock, barrel and receiver. Anyone able to help? I'll post pictures shortly
