Need help identifying the year of manufacture and possible value of an 03A3

[Chuckindenver]

original rifle that has been polished and blued, stock has been refinished and sanded hard,...should be a good shooter.

Hi Jim,

That is very interesting, I wonder if that means it has an A4 twin out there somewhere with a Z after the same serial number?

Is there anyway to tell if the barrel has A4 characteristics?

Thanks for the info,
David.

Unfortunately A4 Z4000158 was one of 500 or so that were destroyed during the 90's.
Regards,
Jim

It would probably sell in the $250-300 range. Chuck would do a great job of parkerizing the metal, but he can't unsand the wood.

My "gun insurance" is a gun safe.

I think you would see it listed at $600 to $700 by someone who was willing to wait quite a while for the "right" buyer. It could sell quickly for $400. The cracked stock (at least it appears cracked on the left side) would be the big price hit. I'd insure for 700, as you can find similar examples that have sold at that price.
