I bought a pile of rifle parts at an estate sale. Two barrelled actions plus stocks. It was a disassembled 1903 Springfield, in a dusty cardboard box, intermingled with a bunch of parts from a SMLE. Didn't know for sure what I had, but in the box was an original 1957 reprint from American Rifleman on "How to Sporterize a Springfield". After getting home and digging around a bit in the box, once the dirt was gone, I found I had a beautiful, complete '03A4, scant stock (minus the scope), plus a gaggle of rusty SMLE parts. Thank goodness the previous owner never followed through with the instructions in the book!
