Old '03 Poster
Stole this photo off whatever auction it was on a while back. Nice internals. Not sure of the vintage, but I'm guessing 1918-20? Notice the "Finger Groove" reference.

OK that is very cool, I would like to find a frameable print for the mancave.

There was someone who did drawings very similar to that above that showed a "layout" of an '03 (he did other firearms as well) in a poster form, but his name has escaped me. We used his poster on the '03 in a display at a gunshow a few years ago. Anyone remember?

http://www.nicholausassociates.com - as I remember. He reprinted all the US Weapon manuals, better than original in some cases.
I just checked. He has this exact poster, in color, for $17.50, should you want one. High Quality reproductions, too. CC

That's the one. I bought his '03 poster and it was excellent. Wish I had more room in my "man cave"!

Thanks, Tom! I just noticed my error (memory is a fragile thing sometimes!) and was about to correct it when I saw your post. CC
