![]() ![]() M1903s and M1903A3s were produced concurrantly during the serial number ranges about 3,320,000 to 3,380,000. My question would be, did I miss some thing in my research or does this vendor have a miss stamped serial number on his 1903A3 which would make it a rare find? So from the research I did I would say that his rifle is low numbered 1903A3 nothing more nothing less. All of the parts on his 03A3 appeared to be stamped. Wikipedia states that milled parts were gradually replaced with stamped parts until, about serial number 3330000. I was able to find similar information on another web site and another showing blocks of serial numbers assigned to Remington for 1903A3's. ![]() When I entered the number in the 1903A3 search it showed that this rifle was produced between Nov. When I entered his serial number under 1903 the search result said that that number was out of the serial number range for 1903's. When I got home I cranked up the computer and started to do research on serial number ranges. I am not an expert on any thing but he told me that the reason he had it priced that way was because the serial number (3330069) belonged on a 1903 not on a 1903A3. It was a very nice rifle but I questioned as to why the price was so high. This past weekend I went to a gun show and a vendor had a Remington 1903A3 on his table with a $3,000.00 price tag on it.
