Then they have an 03 for $2K marked down! Is there something special that I am missing? They also had a 1917 that I was excited about until I saw the weaver bases and chopped barrel....

    Thank you for the feedback. I will look at it more thoroughly when I can next Tuesday or Wednesday. I do remember the barrel was 9 30 but don’t have a picture. I just received Poyer’s 1903 book and will be doing some digging! If it does turn out to be a NM, what would a fair value be? For some reason the Panhandle of Florida seems to be way above any pricing I hear about on forums. Runs closer to what people put up on auction sites...😡

    I just noticed that it had a straight bolt handle. If it is a NM, it would have had a bright, numbered, and swept back bolt.
