- Lot Description
.30-06, 24.2" barrel, S/N 238636. Blued finish, straight gripped finger-grooved stock without reinforcement bolts. Standard Springfield Armory receiver ring markings over serial number. Barrel marked SA / {flaming bomb} / 6-06. Script ELH cartouche on reverse of stock, with the initials W.F.L. carved over it. Very weak {circle}-P inspection behind triggerguard, as well as a weak block letter inspection. Correct 2,400 yard M1905 sight. Cleaning kit in butt trap, M1907 sling attached to rifle. A 1907 dated US M1905 bayonet with bright blade and a .125" blue line at the ricasso, in a M1905 scabbard is included as well. Although a .30-06 dummy chambered in the gun, indicating the rifle was re-chambered from .30-03 to .30-06, the rifle still remains approximately .2" longer than standard, later production 1903s, with neither the stock nor barrel appearing to have been shortened. In all external way this rifle appears to be a correct M1905, with only the chamber indicating it was ever modified.

All markings remain crisp and clear. Mechanically functional, very good bore with some frosting in the grooves.
