Attention New Members and those new registering! We had a lot of problems with spammers and bot attacks with the stock measures provided by the software. The 7 for registration was a fix that we came up with on our own that has worked quite well. Yes it is a PIA for both you and administration to put you onto your chosen username. If you come back on and your login does not work retry with your username without the 7. Thanks for joining us from the administration.

I have been after one of these for some time, I have an 03'A3 and it needed its older brother next to it in the safe. Now I just need to get the proper bolt, the rifle dates to 38' or 39' it has a 42' barrel, I think its been restocked at some point in its life. Still trying to find out whats proper on it.

thats probably proper for the rebarrel in WWII , but i think it originally had a grasping groove stock , you dont say if its a springfeild or rock island , but if you are correct on the date IIRC think rock island was no longer making them
