    1903 National Match rifle on the cover of NRA calendar

    Spotted one in a book store today.

    CSP is what you make it.

    A picture of your gun is worth 1,000 words. A crappy picture is only worth 100.

      M1903 on NRA calendar - the 'Dad Farr' NM rifle?

      Could that M1903 possibly be the 'Dad Farr' NM rifle used to set the record score at the 1921 National Matches? That is in the National Firearms Museum, as I recall.

      Looks like his homemade spotting scope - one-half of a pair of opera glasses - noted in one of Major Culver's 'Sea Stories' on this site.
