Howdy,
Yesterday I picked up a Springfield 1903 Mark 1 milled for the pedersen device. The receiver is numbered 11534XX and is in fair condition. There is quite a bit of pitting on the exterior of the receiver, but the inside is clean. It came with a mint Remington 8-44 2-groove barrel, a Remington bolt, original Springfield trigger group, buttplate and scant style stock.
The pictures show the barrel, the barrel attachment and a not-so-clean pin shaving job. It also shows the worst pitting on the receiver. I'll post some more pictures tomorrow, as it's in pieces right now for the initial teardown/cleaning.
I can't make out the cartouche on the stock. Anyone have info on the oddball Remington parts put on this? Given it's condition and lack of matching parts, it has lost most of its collector's value. I'm assuming it's an arsenal refinish, but the stock doesn't reflect this with any additional cartouches. I appreciate any info. Thanks!
