Manufactured in 1930 as one of 4,495 Model 1903 rifles built up by the U.S. Springfield Armory c. 1923-1932 as "sporter" rifles for commercial sale. The receiver rails, bolt assemblies, and triggers were hand polished for smooth operation, much like the Model 1903 National Match rifles. Features a Lyman globe pattern hooded front sight post and a Lyman 48C pattern micrometer peep rear sight attached to the right side of the receiver, a "S A/flaming bomb/4-30" barrel with "*" star gauge mark on the muzzle and two Unertl pattern scope mount blocks screwed into the top, and a "NS" (nickel steel) marked swept-handle bolt, with correctly hand-polished finish and matching serial number "1351769" electro-stenciled onto the body. Fitted with a "sporter" profile pistol grip walnut stock with cupped checkered buttplate. Includes a Kerr "NOBUCKL" marked web sling.

Very fine, retaining 90% plus original blue finish with some minor edge wear, some scattered minor patches of spotting, focused mostly on the trigger housing and buttplate, and some light handling marks. The re-oiled stock is exceptionally fine with some minor handling marks and attractive raised grain. Mechanically excellent.
