Remington Model 1903 A3 Springfield Rifle World War 2 Issue Still In The Cosmoline ITEM 3088

Item Number 3088 Category Tag

The Remington barrel date is 9-43. The rifle’s serial number is 4032548. This rifle has the standard 24 inch military barrel chambered for the 30 Government 1906 cartridge [30-06]. This rifle was stored at the Raritan Arsenal. This gun was purchased by Fred Funk of Tucson Arizona from the N.R.A. Marksmanship program. This rifle is still in the original cosmoline grease. As you can see from the photos, this rifle has a heavy coat of cosmoline on it. From what I can see, this looks like a near new rifle. The cosmoline has collected a lot of surface junk through the years. The cosmoline is still pliable and not dried out. It would be up to the collector to keep this rifle the way it is or clean the gun up. Would make a nice winter project! The original box is in poor condition as can be seen in the photos. The labels are important from a collector point of view however. This will have to be a two box shipment. One for the rifle and one for the box itself. It is really seldom that you find the rifle with the original shipping box and still in the cosmoline! Here is a nice collector grade Remington 1903 A3 for the collector to unwrap!

In Regards to Phone Calls

For those folks that do not know me yet, I’m very hard of hearing on the phone. Therefore when you would call me, I will pick up the phone and tell you that I will call you right back. I have caller ID just so that you know, the reason for that is I cannot use a regular phone. I have to switch over to what is called a voice carry over phone. When I call you back you will hear my voice in our conversation, an operator will type your conversation to me on my phone view screen. With me reading what you are saying to me saves me a lot of confusion for me mishearing words.

 

I do want to talk to you and answer your questions without mistakes or miscommunications. This system works pretty good, so please be willing to be patient with my hearing loss.

 

My wife Marcia has fine hearing on the phone and is quite knowledgeable about firearms and is very able to help you over the phone.

 

Thanks, Harry
