Sarco "frosted barreled 1903's" any good comments?

[Richard H Brown Jr]

Anyone have any comments about the Sarco Inc. (I'm guessing rebuilds) 1903 Springfields with their "Frosted Barrels" as to safety, or accuracy?

http://sarcoinc.com/4-20-13.pdf Gun page 2 sub page (near the bottom of the .pdf file.).

At $695. a started 03, just add a CMP criterion barrel?

"frosted" equals corrision damaged! Draw your own conclusions.

They do not say so on the site on the site but I bet $5 they are restored drill rifles. If they call the bore frosted then it is probably pretty poor.

Frosted bore? Say what? Scrapco is sitting on a pile old/beat Drill Rifles. Only the very brave/foolish do business with them. I quit on them years ago and haven't looked back since.

"Frosted" bore is a nice euphemism for pitted bore.
