Manufactured in 1943. The barrel is marked "R.A./flaming bomb/9-43" and the front sight is correctly absent. The receiver is correctly marked in two blocks with: "U.S./REMINGTON/MODEL 03-A3" on the left side and the serial number "Z4001598" on the right. The rifle has the correct 1903A4 sniper rifle bolt with the "R" mark on the underside of the bolt handle. A parkerized Redfield scope base is installed on the receiver and has been fitted with a blue M84 rifle scope that is fitted with a rubber eyecup and extending sun shield. The scope itself is a correct GI version marked "TELESCOPE/M84/SERIAL NO. 37218". It is fitted with the correct Remington manufactured stamped trigger guard and barrel bands. The rifle is fitted with a late production fat grip "C" stock that has been stamped with a partially boxed "S.A./O" Springfield Armory inspection mark. It is also been double struck with a circled "P" proof in the grip area. In front of the trigger guard it has also been stamped with the various sub-inspector proofs from the Remington factory. The Remington stamped steel buttplate is fitted with a trap door and it includes a plastic oiler. Includes a green canvas web sling.

Very fine as arsenal refurbished and placed in A4 configuration with 95% of the light gray parkerized finish, some light cycling marks on the bolt body, small handling marks overall, and a patch of oxidation on the inside of the trigger guard. The stock is fine with small dents and dings overall, some deeper gouges, and a deep oil finish. Mechanically excellent. The scope is very fine with a dent on the sun shield and clear optics.
