My good luck continues.... At least I think.

We (dad) picked up a 03 Springfield. Got it with a mig welder and some other tools. Maybe $200 into it.

Serial # dates it to 1918

It must have been refurbed at some point. That's a WWII vintage stock. Nice rifle, grate deal.

Others have said the bolt is also WW2 era. So it sounds like it was pieced together.

Still a cool find!
