Gil,

At 0830 today I dropped the M1903 "Long Tooth" BS rifle off at my neighbor's with a NEW SA Barrel. At 1530 TODAY Tony came by with the rebarreled M1903. We went to the hayfield range and at 100 yards with NC Ball, the rifle printed LEFT 2 inches.

I made a slight RIGHT correction and the "C" (higher front sight) was +2.5 inches at 100 yards with the Battle sight! Oh, What a Country? I went into my heap and found a Milled M1903 trigger guard and a milled Upper Band for Tony's 03-A3. We will shoot against each other at the July 10th club shoot. That is ok. When I need another rebarrel job, I know who to ask and it is not a "Year or MORE" by lesser skilled armorers!

Tony is a retired federal agent and a Certified Armored. I am pleased he is my neighbor and shoots here on my farm ranges.

Adam
