U.S. Springfield Model 1903A1 (Model 1941) U.S.M.C. Sniper bolt action rifle, 30-06 cal., 24” round barrel, Parkerized finish, wood stock, #1464307. This gun is in overall very good to fine condition showing the majority of its military finish, barrel dated 4-37 with “RA”, flaming bomb and star gauge marking indicating National Match grade rifle; fine bore, crisp action, sharp markings, very good stock with circle P and another P, both at the front of the semi-pistol group; “D-1836-4” stamped on the underside of the butt stock with “SA/SPG” in square on the left side of the stock above the trigger assembly and “RA – P” in a diagonal rectangle also above the trigger; three sling swivels remain; checkered steel butt plate with door for cleaning kit; bolt is etched with “1464307” (serial number of rifle). The scope is a J. Unertl and is also marked “USMC-Sniper” and “1650”; the rear scope base is also marked Unertl. The optics are fine and the condition of the scope is excellent with an original military green scope tube in overall very good to fine condition with lens caps and correct E & O blocks. It would be hard to improve upon this rare US sniper rifle assuming one could locate a collector willing to part with one as most in private hands do not come up for auction or sale. Est.: $5,000-$10,000.
