This is a standard Late production U.S. Springfield Model 1903 National Match service rifle. It has the standard five line U.S. Model 1903 Springfield receiver markings over the serial number 1402987. The barrel is roll marked "SA/Ordnance Shell and Flame/1-38", and it is properly stamped on the muzzle with the small star-gauge marking. The barrel is fitted with the standard blade front sight and the folding ladder rear sight. Both are fitted with a set of "P.J. O'Hare" stamped sheet metal sight covers. It has a matching numbered "NS" marked, bright polished bolt. It is fitted with a standard late model walnut, pistol grip type stock. It is stamped on the left side with a boxed "SA/SPG" cartouche with a single circled "P" proofs on the underside above the pistol grip. It is stamped "D28179" on the underside along with the serial number in front the sling swivels. It has the standard all milled components, with a heavily checkered NM type steel buttplate.

Excellent with 97% of the original dark gray/black parkerized type finish overall with edge and high spot wear with some cycling marks on the bolt body from limited firing and cycling. The reoiled stock and handguard are both in very fine condition with a dark brown linseed type finish showing limited light handling marks in a few areas. The stock cartouches are clearly legible though light. Mechanically excellent.
