Thanks for reminding me
I happened on this today by pure chance lots of photos and info this is were I first read about these slings and just so happened I bought a lot of 5 that were on eBay and there was one here?s the...
I also have one of these unfortunately not as good condition as yours. If I remember correctly they were made in a San Diego saddlery just a small amount. No indication for what use I can imagine...
I’ve done a few. Look for a small set screw on some others if tapped a few times carefully without doing damage to the barrel will break the solder. Just look at it closely they come off easily.
Yes but it still had to go through an FFL to be transferred if it has a serial number it needs to no matter if it’s welded or not The only Exception if it’s been chopped up in accordance to the...
No more restorations or 22 conversions for me. He’d do well to sell it on gunbroker might get $150 for it
Lyman. I’ve converted a couple to 22 cal they work great. And you don’t need a Springfield 1922 barrel. But if you can find one there is less work involved. These should not be destroyed they do have...
It’s worth selling and someone can rebuild it. I have done a few it’s not difficult. The switch usually isn’t welded it’s either brazed or cold welded and can be removed and replaced. The area that...
Tom Trevor thanks got it. Interesting rifle I have one with orders also from San Diego. I will not sell it that’s for sure. Like to see where it goes
Tom Trevor please supply a link to this auction I can only find a Remington 03 being auctioned. Thank you
That’s is a very nice project that looks great. How many rifles does it hold? Great job!
It’s thinned down and fits fine. The USMC blade is thicker and shaped differently if you are going to use a cover for this you’ll need a USMC front sight cover which is larger. A regular 03 front...
There aren’t any barrels available and haven’t been for quite awhile for the Springfield 1903. I’d say your barrel was worth more than you think. I’ve been watching eBay barrels for the 03 and the...
Well then I was reading here and saw the photos here about changed serial numbers. It was awhile back. But I know what I read and saw. I agree there was usually an A stamped but these were unusual. I...
No the photos I’ve seen here on this site during a discussion about this same subject were a few photos of redone serial numbers with no A. This was a few years ago but this I remember that is why I...
Actually not all of them were marked with an A. I’ve seen photos here a few years back was interesting.
Lyman, no I don’t have this rifle available to me to take more photos.

I know the military had changed some garand rifle numbers I’m assuming because they had Springfield...
Gun Smoke, neither I should have said have a photo of.

Have this lightly stamped Winchester with a redone number any remarks?
Thank you
I recall looking at a O-67 rifle a few years ago and it had a Winchester 67 barrel but I didn’t see any import marks on it. It did if I remember correctly had a eagle stamp.
Ok I probably know this but seems I forget more than remember. Was the Winchester M1 Garand replacement barrel I think only one year 1967 ever used by the military and in particular the USMC? Thank...
Great answers. Thank you very much!!
Good question
Thank you I’m guessing it was probably done at Springfield
I have seen a Garand barrel with a “T” stamp. What is this and who would stamp it? Thank you
