"WWI U.S. Rock Island Arsenal Model 1903 – .30-06 (L2025-11440)

Description:
"Serial No. 319806, manufactured in 1918 by Rock Island Arsenal, chambered in .30-06, with a 24" round barrel dated “S.A. / [Flaming Bomb] / 2-42", indicating a World War II-era Springfield Armory replacement barrel. This rifle underwent a WWII arsenal upgrade, as evidenced by its 95% parkerized arsenal refinish, blending its WWI origin with later service modernization. The walnut stock is in good condition, showing expected light handling impressions, and bears a circle “P" proof behind the trigger guard. The action remains smooth and functions correctly. Included is a desirable original 1918-dated leather sling, enhancing its historical value. This rifle represents a transitional service piece that likely saw continued use from the trenches of WWI through the mobilization of WWII.

Curio/Relic: Yes
