    Another m1903 with questions

    Hello

    I have a springfield armory m1903 that my father gave me and I'm just trying to figure out what I have because I'm selling my guns and don't know the price range on this one.

    I'm hoping someone can help me decipher this one.

    springfield armory m1903 serial #816271
    has S A on the top end of the barrel with 12-32 stamped as well and the flaming bomb or whatever it is.

    underneath the barrel on the very end of the wood it is stamped with RI

    Then on the left side it has the inspectors stamp in the wood of SA with JFC under that and
    outlined.

    Can anyone tell me what all that means?

    I don't want to overprice it but on the other hand I'd like to not give it away if I can help it.

    Any help is appreciated.

    Thank you.

    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.
