Here is my 03a1 late NS reciever 1.47 mil SA, this is the way she came from the local gun store when I lived in Tucson Az, USMC sights/ hood, fine checkered butt plate, prewar C stock with the only stamp being a S in the cut off without any real dents or dings. The barrel was so grungy it took nearly a whole bag of patches, bottle in a half of solvent and a pint of elbow grease before the dark changed and bacame dim. Altho the bore is comming arround the more I shoot it.Attachment 473Attachment 474Attachment 475

I got some new stuff but I'm too lazy to take pics.

I am thinking about digging in and learning more about my 03 and A3s soon. I sure do like them and really enjoy shooting them. I just never cared much about pins bolts and such just finger grove or not. I have a hand full of them and ready to learn what I have.

Checkmate, I am totally addicted to them. Roadkingtrax has some really nice looking stuff.

This is my reclaimed type-writer gun. It started as a stripped Smith Corona receiver from Aim surplus, NOS RA 2-44 2 groove barrel, and NOS bolt. Most of the other parts came from Ebay or Numrich.

I had the barrel installed, but did the rest of the work myself. Including reparking parts (Bolt Guts, Trigger guard, follower, ect), staining the handguard to match the nice S stock I got from Punch the Clown. The cutoff area needed a little work with a dremel to get the cutoff to move, but Alumnahyde dark-parkerizing touched it up perfectly.

Axemurderer was kind enough to answer all my stupid questions. :)
