    1903 Remington O3A3

    This is my Remington O3A3, I also just picked up a 1903 Springfield Mark 1. These are my favorite military rifle mostly because my first bolt action hunting rifle was a Rock Island that had been partially sporterized. This was in 1972, I found a semi finished maple stock which I completed myself. I was able to have the barrel crowned, the bolt altered for scope use and drilled and taped for scope mounts at my high school machine shop class. It was a different time back then.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

    I also remember bringing in a Cooey 22 to high school machine shop and refinishing the all the parts and stock. We were given marks for anything we restored on the side. Our shop teacher was a big outdoors man, who hand made trout nets (amongst other projects) in class with a custom wood steamer. Trades classes kept many of us coming to school. The .22 is still in regular use,now with my nephew and his boys on their farm.
