WWII Riflesman's Creed with a 1903. I allways liked this version best.

Looks like a Remington 03

[Fred]

I don't know about that. It has a non swept back handled bolt, it only has one stock bolt, and the rear sight knobs are dished.

I'm more impressed with the words. All of use should be standing up in public taking this pledge.

[Fred]

Yes indeed!

[the_1st_sgt]

Your right. I couldn't see the GG's the first time through. The contours of the handguard looked sort of like a Rem.

[Fred]

Well, of course the early Remingtons did have grasping grooves, but they also had swept back bolts and two stock bolts. Anyway, it's a good looking 03!

When I was a kid, my Dad would have a couple of bourbons and recite that. Especially on November 10th. We always had a birthday party for the Corps.

It sort of gives you a feel for why some Marines were reluctant to trade their '03's in for an M1.
