    Looks like an original M1903A4. Look under the end of the barrel for a punch mark. Had to do a handstand to see the last photo, but it looks like an original bolt, too. Lift the handle of the bolt and take a photo of the stock where it is relieved.

    Nice find. I wish I would "receive" one of those!

      The markings on the side of the receiver identify it as a M1903A4 sniper rifle - without the scope and mount.

          Well, I am definitely no expert, but I am sure others will chime in. Ball park...If you "received it" for less than $800 or so then you probably got a great deal. Of course, it all depends on bore condition, etc...

              Looks like the receiver has been drilled and tapped for a Lyman receiver sight. Hurts value a lot.

              The stock cut looks legit. Any stamps on the wood?

              A nice, original, blued, complete A4 bolt recently sold on fleabay for $750. Lots of value if sold seperately.

                  with tapped holes, 1500.00....if you have them repaired correctly...2,000.00
                  if it aint broke...fix it till it finally is.

                    Please post more and better pictures. Especially important are close ups of any markings on the stock.
                    The attached A4 photoguide will give you an idea of the important views.

                    Only about 10% of A4's are in the "Z" range so that may contribute to a bump in the value a lot will depend on whether of not the rifle has been rebuilt and are original markings intact.

                    Jim

                      How did you get it?
