Description:

Manufactured in 1942, this is a Remington production U.S. 03-A4 Sniper Rifle. Notably, the receiver has the proper offset "MODEL 03-A3" nomenclature and serial number, but an unknown party has X'd out the "3" in "A3" and added "4" next to it; while the U.S. Army did use the "A4" nomenclature to distinguish the sniper rifle from the baseline infantry rifle, they were not in the habit of physically marking the rifle as such. Iron sights properly absent, with an "RA/9-43" barrel, parkerized bolt body marked "R", blued extractor, sleeve and knob, stamped steel floorplate, pistol grip stock marked "RA", "AA", and "FJA", "BOYT/42" leather sling and a flat checkered buttplate. A blued Redfield base is installed on the receiver, with a Lyman M73B1 scope numbered "7669611".

Rating Definition:

Very fine as arsenal refurbished, with 97% plus blue and parkerized finish, with mild scratches on the barrel, a few scattered dings and scuffs on the stock, and mild handling marks overall. The scope shows a few patches of pitting, but otherwise has very fine exterior finish, clear optics and solid reticle. Mechanically excellent.
