charleslee 45 Posted July 18, 2010 Has anyone seen the recent ads from Sarco for the 100 1903 A3 Springfield rifles for sale from the Pacific series? I wonder if they are any good & worth considering? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

usnmars 136 Posted July 26, 2010 I have looked at them and they are obvious refurbs that you can easily spot. The barrel bands and other small parts are parked and they should be blued. They do look ok, but if you are looking for a good collector, I would just get a regular 03a3. Also it seems like the going price for a regular 03a3 in nice condition are actually cheaper than those.

matt6669 71 Posted July 26, 2010 Way over priced for just being in a tv series, no thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Teufelhunden 6 Posted August 28, 2010 I would say that these are more for a TV prop collector than a gun collector. They weren't even correct for the show. The Marines didn't have '03A3s on Guadalcanal. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
