This is an excellent example of a WWII production rifle as manufactured by the Remington Arms Company. The top of the receiver is marked "U.S./REMINGTON/MODEL 03-A3" over the serial number (highlighted in white) and the barrel is marked "RA/flaming bomb/9-43" (highlighted in white). The rifle has the correct barrel bands, trigger guard and follower. It has the military style rear sight and high blade front sight with a cover that is marked with "flaming bomb/U.S." on the left side highlighted in white. The receiver and barrel are green parkerized while the remaining metal parts are blue. The stock and handguard are both walnut with the left side marked with a "RA Crossed Cannon" cartouche and boxed "FJA" proofs with various sub inspector proofs in front of the trigger guard. The left rear side of the buttstock is stamped with "SS" letters. Steel buttplate with cleaning rod compartment (rod not included). Complete with a brown leather military sling.

Excellent plus. The rifle retains 99% of the original parkerized and blue finishes with only some light cycling and edge wear with a few light scratches on the buttplate. The wood is also excellent with a light coat of protective varnish applied and some scattered minor dents and nicks. The sling is excellent showing very little wear. All markings and cartouches are very clear.
