Manufactured in 1923 as a National Match and subsequently rebarreled with a star gauged Springfield "4-29" dated barrel, this is a very fine example of a U.S. Springfield Model 1903 National Match bolt action rifle. Blade front and ladder rear sights are installed, the latter properly without a "volley notch" on top of the rear sight staff, and the top of the barrel is marked "H/2831". An enlarged windage knob is fitted to the rear sight, and the bolt is both matching numbered to the sight and fitted with the less common "headless" cocking piece. The later production replacement "C" pattern pistol grip stock is inspector marked "D.A.L" ahead of the wrist, "H" on the bayonet lug, "S" in the cutoff recess, and fitted with a sharply checkered buttplate. A set of P.J. O'Hare sight protectors, brass in front and steel in the rear, the former stamped "PENN 4" on the underside.

Very fine, with 90% of the original finish, showing some bright rubbing around the front sight and mild handling marks overall. The replacement stock is very fine, with some light dings and scratches. Mechanically excellent.
