I bought this rifle a long time ago. I had a friend that worked part-time for a large firearms dealer and he
called to say they had just received a large shipment of high number 1903 rifles, he said to stop by on a
Saturday afternoon and we could go through them and pick some out. We thought we would look for star
gaged barrels (NM rifles) but found two USMC marked barrels (Sedgley) with the circle S. We each bought
one. As I was into M1's a lot, I just put this nice example away and never shot it. Later in 2004, John Beard
told me that it was a USMC rifle
