    Requesting SRS verification for NRA Sporter

    Could someone verify my NRA Sporter, SN 1366507? Star Gage # 1 1077, barrel dated 9-30. NS Bolt with electro-pencil SN on bottom. No star on muzzle.

    I'd like to have a copy of the applicable page,or other objective evidence, if possible.

    Thanks from a new guy!

    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. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    The only info available from the SRS books is as follows:

    1366507 SPT 10/27/31 DCM RIFLE SALES 1922-42

    To find out who it was shipped to, you will have to pay for the information. Just GOOGLE Springfield Research Service to find out how to request the info.

    Welcome to the forum, we'd love to see some clear pics of this one. You don't see so many good NRA sporters around. I saw one Kragicon NRA here and no 1903 Springfields...
    Regards, Jim

    Thanks, Gents, for the prompt replies. I'll get some photos posted soon. Definitely interested in any history I can get from SRS.

    Thanks, BAR. Did you notice the unusual relief cut behind the pistol grip. I kind of wish it wasn't there, but it's interesting. Makes one wonder what they were thinking.

    I'm thinking they were carving it out for aesthetics. It's a nice figure of wood and too bad they did that...
