What is a "shooter" 1903 worth that is no longer a collectible.  Does anybody have any thoughts or opinions?    Can it be made into a scout rifle?

 

 

Let's talk and i have some stuff to show you.  Sporterized 03's

I just got one for 350. 1903, rebarreled.

What makes it a "shooter"? is it all in tact? 

SA 1903 with lower than 8xx,xxx I can't remember the exact number is considered non shooters.

 

I got a couple that are awesome shooters less than 1.5 muzzle wear all original

I'm not sure what makes it a shooter, other than it is not "collectible" grade and/or it has been altered, etc.  But that it works fine and is accurate...  I will have to see tomorrow when I check it out.

The receiver says Remington on it and it has the grooves to take a stripper clip.  It looks like the receiver has been re-blued, so I don't know if it had been parkerized.   The serial number is in the 3 million range.  On the barrel it says Golden State Arms Santa Fe Divison Sharp Shooter.  It appears to have a military stock in which pins were put in it.  The bolt-action rifle is about 22" long and includes a recoil pad.  A piece of wood was added to the fore grip on the stock and a piece was put on the end cap.  It has a target front sight and a flip up sight in the middle of the rifle.  It seems like it would be a light and quick handling gun, but probably has a pretty good recoil to it. 

 

I imagine just the military parts in it have value.
