ksadz - Welcome, and thanx for posting the pics of your '03. Be sure to ask your smith if he checked the headspace.
The stamp under the bolt handle is an R, for Remington. The bolt is original to a Rem 1903A3, as is the stock and lower band. Not a big deal, it is common on rebuilt rifles.
The barrel date does not indicate the time of rebuild. Are there any rebuild stamps on the stock? If not, the stock was most likely installed by a previous owner.
It looks like there is some kind of circular stamp on top front of the upper band (directly behind front sight)? Can you tell what it is?
The sight covers are very nice! The front cover looks like a T.J. Conroy, also. Together, they are worth over $200.
The sling is on bass-ackwards. You can check here to see if it is proper - How to attach the Model of 1907 Sling

Just to add and amplify what Mike said, the stock was originally mounted on a late Remington M1903A3, as probably was the bolt.
