World War II U.S. Remington Arms Model 1903A4 Bolt Action Sniper Rifle with Weaver M73B Scope

This is a standard late production 1903A4 sniper rifle that was refurbished for Korea, complete with a Weaver scope, lens caps and scope case. The barrel is marked "R.A./flaming bomb/1-44" and correctly lacks the front sight The receiver is stamped with: "U.S. REMINGTON MODEL 03-A3" on the left side and the serial number on the right. The rifle has the correct 1903A4 sniper rifle bolt with the "R" mark on the underside of the bolt handle and on other components. A reparkerized Redfield scope base is installed on the receiver and has been fitted with a blue Weaver M73B1 2.5x rifle scope. This was the military version of the standard Weaver commercial 330 hunting scope. It is electric pencil etched on the side: "Telescope M73B1/Serial Number 6226". The rifle is fitted with the correct stamped style trigger guard and barrel bands. The rifle is fitted with a wartime C stock, stamped "RA/cross-cannon ordnance proof/FJA" and then over stamped with a boxed "BA/JPL" rebuild cartouche, with a "P" proof in the pistol grip area. It comes with a WWII leather sling, (which has separated due to it age) lens caps and a canvas scope storage case.

ConditionVery fine as arsenal refurbished with a reparkerized metal finish overall showing only light edge and high spot wear. The stock and handguard are both very good also having also been arsenal refurbished with visible cartouches and proofmarks. The scope retains 95% of its blue finish with good optics that are a little hazy. The accessories are all very good.
