First my apologies, I meant to have these up a long time ago, but life dealt me some problems that had priority. Anyway here are pictures of the 1903 we discussed in this link
Interesting 1903 . It was from this Gunbroker Auction
GB 1903 . I apologize for the pictures, I am capable of better, but just couldn't seem to "git er dun" this time. I am going to post these in groups and at the end will list my thoughts on what I may have. Everyone please throw your .02 in.
First the stock:
Cast off 1/8 at heel and 9/16 toe as best I could determine.
Fitting of comb to user, top is dead straight, only visible from above or as a shadow viewed from the side.
Palmswells, chip at rear of tang shows.
Rear inletting, gouge marks clearly visible. Note the magazine well is nothing but continuous gouge cuts.
Another view of action inletting.
Swivel inletting
Trigger guard inletting
