My local pawn shop gal called me today about some military rifles she had gotten in so I stopped by. I found this Springfield Armory 1903 sitting in the rack for what I considered a fair price. I know the bolt is wrong as is one swivel and ring but what struck me was the serial number, 15034XX. This is the highest serial number I myself have ever seen on a Springfield Armory 1903. Has anyone else seen a higher number? I might add the barrel date is 3-37 from the Springfield Armory so I would guess that it is the original barrel on the receiver.



UPDATE

I went through my Springfield drawer and found a proper bolt for this receiver according to the fellas Here




I doubt the stock is the proper one but it will do for now.
