Full disclosure: I'm not a gunsmith, nor do I pretend to be one on TV. But I can't pass of the chance to do something with these actions. All 3 are US Model of 1917 Remington stamped and the one on the bottom has been drilled/tapped for scope mounts. The other 2 (top ones in the top view) have not been drilled up front, but do have an extra hole in the plug. Obviously they've had the rear sight milled off and the bolts are in various states of completeness. 2 need an extractor and one is missing the firing pin completely, but one appears to relatively complete, to the point that it cocks and fires.
I know you can build these into just about anything you want. Can you all help me out with what I have and what's been done to them? It looks like something has been modified or plugged under where the rear sight was, and the bolt handles don't have the dog leg bend that most 1917 pictures have. Anything to look out for that can be had anymore as replacement parts?
