Mike I am not a Mannlicher-Schoener expert but my understanding is that 1903,1905 and 1908 models are pretty much the same except for the changes to feed the cartridges. Your action and what is left of the stock is identical to my 1905 even to the scope mounts. Below are the photos of my bolt asembly, as you can see the bolt head is completely different than the photo of yours. Note also that my bolt handle has proof marks stamped at the root of the handle, there are no serial # stamped on this bolt assembly. Guess we will just have to wait and see what you get.
