    Remington 1903A3 hunting......

    Guys I 'm interested in a Remington 1903A3 and I'm not sure what to look for to ensure it's correct. Can you guys offer some suggestions as to what I need to look for?

    Looking at two, both around 700.00.

    41421X 4-43
    Bolt is marked "R"
    Original "S" stock walnut stock with RA cartouches

    34744XX 12-43
    Original "S" stock walnut stock with RA cartouches

    Thanks, for any tips.

    David

    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.

Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    If you could post pics here instead it would make it infinitely easier to identify what's a deal or not.

    This one is an old CMP gun the fellow has lost the paperwork of the 17 years he's owned it. He's never fired it it's been in his safe all these years. 725.00 on this one plus shipping.

    This one Serial# 4142133 is 695.00 plus shipping.


    Thanks for checking them out. -David

    They both look good, but you want to know which one would be correct or complete? Is that it? Close as possible to original and shootable at the same time? There's a few that will be along shortly to assist there.

    While you're waiting for some more answers, there are threads here discussing '03A3s and what they should have to be correct. It might give you a head start.
