Gun was made by Remington. Remington made all of the 1903A3 rifles. This one dates from late March, 1943. Looks like it still has the original trigger guard and mag plate as well. Original barrels were 4 groove and shoot very well. Four groove kept the bore cleaner for longer. I like the magazine cut-off that was designed into the 1903 and maintained in the 1903A3.
