Smith Corona 1903A1

[Vanmor]

Nice looking rifle. The one I have has a very dark stock on it.

I went on Youtube and looked up "Saving Private Ryan". I found the three sniper film clips of the character Pvt. Jackson. Looks to be the same rifle as ours. Maybe the 03-A4 sniper ?

the rifle being used to replicate the A4 in the film is not a US made rifle.
it is a Nat Ord, or Santa fe arms receiver...so hope yours isnt the same type of rifle...

Haven't heard that before, Chuck. Is there a particular feature on the receiver that gives it away? Certain clip in the movie?

[Chuckindenver]

yea, the closeup in the tower gives it away, the Nat ord, doesnt have the stripper clip guide, and is shaped differently.
iv killed enough Nat ords to spot them a mile away.
