I picked up a low number RIA 03 S/N 18734X made in 1910. It has 12-42 SA barrel on it. I have shot it with my low velocity reloads and it's accurate. I wonder if anyone has any shipping information or other information on it, other than don't shoot it.
Low # 1903

It's your rifle. Use it as you please. Personally, I'd shoot it. Review the information of receiver failures in terms of years produced and factory then decide for yourself. With a nice barrel using low velocity reloads, can't see that it would be a problem. Given that they USMC used LN 03's and rebuilt them repeatedly and reported no failures, would think that simple usage weeded out any problematic receivers. JMHO. Sincerely. bruce."

If you want an attempt to match on SRS, you need to provide the entire serial number. M1903 # 18734X didn't exist!
