1903A3 & Trapdoor

[LT Col Long]

Hi All!!

Hey for those of you who are looking for an '03A3 (cal 30/06) and or a 1880 something trapdoor (cal 45/70), I have a good friend who wants to sell these 2 rifles.  Both are in full military dress and the prices are:  for the 1903A3 $700.00.  For the Trapdoor $800.00.  The trapdoor I know well and have shot it, bottom line excellent rifle.  The 30 I have not seen, however it is in real good shape too.  Please PM me if any of you all have interest and I'll connect you to this gent.  I wanted to put these on our pages first as we shoot them often!  Oh, shipping is $50.00 per rifle.

That's an '03A3, and not a 1903 Springfield?  A friend is looking for the latter.

Ned as far as I know, 1903, 30/06.

1903: Does it have a barrel sight, or Is the rear sight mounted on the receiver?  Straight wrist or pistol grip? Questions for seller.

[LT Col Long]

Drydock the 1903 is straight grip, sight mounted on the barrel.  He sent me pics, but I'll be in the dark as to how to put 'em on this thread??
