1903 Springfield National Match Rifle Research

[ww2guns]

I just acquired a what I believe is a correct 1903 Springfield NM serial number 1497403, barrel dated 5-37. The 1903 has all the features of a National match 1903. Star marked barrel, bright bolt etched with the matching serial number marked NS, Cocking piece marked CV, Heavily checkered but plate, stocked marked with the matching serial number just before the rear sling ring and just forward of the but serial number marked D-1836 , left side of the stock marked about the trigger SA/SPG, Lymann sight, the only inconstancy I can find is cutoff cutout is marked with a W instead of a S. Feedback welcomed.

If any one has the Frank Mallory books listing serial numbers a photo of the page showing the serial number would be greatly appreciated
