  1. Default 1903 Bolt Questions.

    Just starting to go through hundreds of parts I got from my father. A bolt that stood out, 1903 with a straight handle. it has J 6 under the safety lug and a single punch mark under the handle.
    Is this of any value?
    Thank you

    Take another look - it is probably a J5. Dates from about 1918 and is double heat-treated

    A little "early", unless it was used as a replacement when the rifle was rebuilt.
