A Great Uncle of mine was KIA in Germany on 12/5/44 and originally buried in Margraten Holland. In the late 1940's his remains were disinterred from there and brought home. My grandmother had some...

I also found my A4 in Alabama, on a Facebook page last year. Young man I got it from said he purchased it from a sporting goods store in Tuscaloosa around 2010. It was sporterized, but the CMP Custom...

Posted this on CMP forum as well. Younger son visited a local pawn shop last Saturday to buy some ammo and called me to say they had a "Springfield 16" bayonet setup" for an insanely low price....

Thanks for the info!

1903A4, S/N 3411908.

Currently sporterized, awaiting restoration. Has a shortened 3-44 2-groove barrel, so I know it was arsenaled at least once. Thanks.

As title states, looking for a NOS (or near NOS with short chamber) Remington 03A3 4-groove barrel, date range 2-43 to 9-43. Finish unimportant. I'm trying to restore my 3.411M 03A4 that has a...

Forgot to mention that the stock bolts are both stamped on the head with "2", and there appears to be a possible stamp between the rear tang bolt hole and the trigger opening cut, as viewed from the...

Updated the photobucket link.

Cross posted in CMP forum as well. You may remember last week when I stated I had acquired a sporterized M1903A4. Last Sunday at church I told a gentleman who is a retired Army Colonel about it, and...

Thanks. As I stated earlier, I have posted most of this on CMP and see where a lot of you guys respond there too. This is my first exposure to a real M1903A4, outside of a museum or gun show exhibit,...

Thanks for the replies. I took it completely apart to check things. I added a safety, since it was missing. I swapped the Tasco scope for a Weaver K10 I had, and the safety clears. With a strong...

Thanks. The link to pictures of your stock is missing. I would love to get the correct stock, but I already need to sell some excess parts myself to recoup my cost today. I didn't have another rifle...

I just got a sporterized M1903A4. I posted story, pics, etc. in Sniper Rifle forum. Which would be better for discussion purposes, that forum or this one? Thanks.

Well, as the title states, I just got a sporterized M1903A4 for a good price. Found it last night on a Facebook page of all places, and just made a 90-mile round...

Thanks for the replies; I did not buy the rifle, but referred the seller to an acquaintance that collects milsurp training rifles.

I have located a 1938 or 1939 vintage Mauser MM410b about an hour south of me. It has been slightly "bubbified", but appears to be matching numbers based on photos I have seen. It is not in the...

Just a heads up. A Ruger P-89 was recently stolen from an Irondale business. It has been reported to the Irondale PD. I used to work for this company, and was the original purchaser of the weapon in...

Since the number of scabbards for 20th century US bayonets is finite, and some of them are damaged at the tip, I did this to a recent acquisition and thought I'd share the process here, as posted on...
