Due to relocating I am selling my Remington M1903-A3 to free up some funds
I have only had this rifle for about 4 months and have put about 36 rounds through her, Price wise I'm looking for £1000 and will throw in what ever ammo I have left.
Its only on sale here at the moment, will add it to the usual websites if there is no interest from you guys
If you have any questions, please get in touch

Have just found the info from when I bought it which may give you some more info on the Rifle
Grey Parkenised finish on all metal components. Marked over the breech, "U.S. ?Remington / Model 03-A3 / 3529815" Serial number is correct for date on barrel so there is a strong chance that these components have remaind together since they left the Remington Factory.
Barrel is stamped behind the fore sight "R.A." over Flaming bomb over dat "3-43" the correct war expedient steel ressed fittings of for end cap and band, mid-strap and sling loop, magazine floor plate and trigger guard; all marked with the "R" designating Remington manufacture.
Correct later style aperture sight, graduated to 1000 yards, with ramp elevation and "wind-in" windage adjustment. Refinded Mauser type action with swept bolt handle and flag safety to rear. to the left rear of the action the magazine cut-off and bolt removal lever. This weapon was heavily coated in grease as a result of that and the parkenised finish there are no signs of corrosion.
the one piece straight walnut stock and hand guard are in good condtiton with only minimal scuffs. rear sling swivel and chequered Remington Butt-plate, with trap - empty. perfect four grove bore. Smooth action.

Now looking for £800 for this piece of history, which as far as I can see is the cheapest one around

I can assure you that after the way he has taken care of me over the last two weeks, if we could afford it I would say "Sold". Sadly it's not possible at the moment.
