I have FOR Sale is a Smith Corona 1903A3 rifle in very good condition. As most of you that have traded with me know that most of what I have is either brand new or in excellent to very good condition. I’m trying to thin the herd a little and starting with things I don’t use anymore.
The pictures of the Smith Corona speak for themselves. The rifle works as it should and has a good bore. I don’t have a gauge to measure the erosion, but the rifling is strong. The serial number of this rifle dates it to being manufactured in 1944, so it could very well have seen action in WWII. It does have stamping on the stock and everything looks original. The barrel has a date of 10 43 and this could be the original barrel.
The price for this rifle is $1100 and needs to be close to me and I am not going to let it go for a penny less.. The only thing I would be interested in trading it for is a Springfield 1903 in like condition. The best way to contact me is via PM. Thanks for looking.
