My last and very finest 1903...
Well, I've decided to sell my last and Very Best 1903 Springfield. It's in original unaltered condition and has all of its original parts as assembled in 1918. Of course the bore is perfect. My guess is that this rifle was possibly used in a training camp instead of going to Europe late in the war. It doesn't seem to have been exposed to the elements or rough handling. Possibly just used on the range at a U.S. training station. Anyway, I think I'm going to sell my last and finest bayonet with this rifle as well as a couple of other nice items that'll go with it. Like untouched and unaltered Garands, I think true untouched, unaltered and un worn 1903 Springfields Made during World War I are extremely scarce. Such rifles would of had to have been squirreled away from notice to have survived a century intact and un marred. Someone brought this rifle into a gun store after a relative died. The rifle will probably be going up on Gunbroker. I'll let you all know when it goes up for sale. Anyway, for your enjoyment here are some of the photos that will be in the add later.
