I have this very nice condition Springfield 1903A3 barreled action I’d like to sell. The bore is very good. The receiver is a National Ordnance receiver and the barrel of a Remington dated 1945. The sighting apparatus and stamped bottom metal are intact and the matte blued is nice. I thought about building it into a nice open sighted sporter but I just don’t need another rifle in that category. It could easily put back to military spec as well. Just need a stock, upper handguard and retainers. I’d like $400 shipped to your FFL.

Thanks,

RC

To put it "back to mil spec" would require another receiver since the Nat Ord is a cast commercial receiver and not GI. Only Remington and Smith Corona made them for the A3.
 
True. Thanks for your input, bud. Thank you for the bump. The National ord receiver was not mil-spec, but an after-market part from the 1950s. A build using like new, original mil-spec parts. The barrel is a mirror and the bolt, sights, and other parts are like new. This barreled action is in great condition. Put it back into a mil-spec-like condition if you choose to go that route. Or build a sporter in the Griffen and Howe style. Either would make a great shooter. Let me know if you have any questions.

Just wanted to say thanks for the excellent customer service. Ordered some 9.3x62 brass and the delivery was a little short. An email through your website Contact Us link was replied to the next day with the tracking info for the correction. Good pricing coupled with great customer service will see returning customers every time. Thanks again!

Made it to Augusta Georgia yesterday for a meeting, hunt bookings are looking good for 2026 and 2027, had a great time on our Alabama safari shot a rutting deer at 200 yards with 7mm PRC near Huntsville and then headed on to Butler Alabama and semi guided my first deer ever shot a very nice broken off 8 point with hunter there and spend a few days on 1100 acres hunting preserve awesome place!

I am righthanded, so not interested in the rifle, but I have a 375 RUM and 350 gr bullet loading data is very hard to come by. If you could reply with information regarding your loads I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you, Ray Boone, Leavenworth, WA
