    AIM Surplus - 03A3

    I was following the thread about the A4 repros and wondered about the 03A3 that AIM advertises. The add states:

    "Original US manufactured model M1903A3 Springfield 30.06 caliber bolt action rifles. These beautiful rifles have been professionally restored and refinished. They feature original, unissued US barrels and new Military Spec. walnut stocks."

    Does anyone know about these pieces? They make it sound like the barrels are not Gibbs (or?), but rather original barrels mated to original receivers, with a new stock.

    Does anyone know anything regarding these 03A3's. I wanna shoot the hell out of an 03 A3 and thought: better to use one of these than my old original (1942 Rem).

    Thanks for any input
