1903A1 National Match rifle

Can I ask what you paid for it?

Hi RTL
On another forum he indicated that he paid $2400.
FWIW

This is correct. Considering that I can get an SRS letter confirming its pedigree and a copy of the original sales ticket, it seems like this might have been a decent deal.

Next time you look at it, get a good picture of the barrel date/ flaming bomb. I'd be curious what it might show.

Will do, RKT. The barrel is dated "1-38", but i will post a pic of it after I pick it up.

I got some documentation from the SRS on my rifle. In case anyone ever wondered what the SRS letter and Ordnance sales ticket look like.

I would like to know who in Clovis bought that rifle. I used to shoot with Tom Gatewood, P.J. Wright, Jack and Helen Moore, George Tubb, Roger Hedgecock, Larry Wilson, etcs. and others in that area. Helen was Helen Orme Johnson whose father was the only one who shot in both the King's Hundred and the Presidents Hundred. Helen still holds the record for 10 shots at a 1000 yards on the old "C" target. The match has been discontinued for the course is now fired on the LR target.

Hi Calfed
I received your private message. I do not personally remember him, but he fired as an Expert in the New Mexico State Championship sponsored by my gun club (White Sands Rifle and Pistol Club) fired on Dona Ana Range #43 on 23 & 24 June 1962 according to my official match bulletin. I do not know how to send a private message or I could send you his address in Clovis NM and his scores. My match bulletin's from the era indicates that He fired quite regularly in the NM State Championship's and even fired a couple after we opened the State Range at Capitan in 1964 though I do not see his name much after about 1965.

I'll pm my email to you.

I do not want to seem like a stalker, but I would like to get any information that I can about the original purchaser.

The bore is amazing...a "0" on the CMP gauge.
