I have since built a few 03A3 rifles using those DCM parts and Remington receivers which I reclaimed from drill rifles.All sales made only in accordance with these terms. I cannot speak to its strength or to any accuracy because I never got that far with the National Ordnance receiver. It was completely useless and I had to send it back for a refund. I recall specifically that the holes in it for the guard screws did not line up with the ones in the Magazine/trigger housing. Unfortunately, I could not get parts to fit into it. I saw a National Ordnance advertisement in a gun magazine and was able to buy one of their receivers for around $20. I looked everywhere for a receiver, but they were simply not available thru DCM or anywhere else at the time. Where an original receiver would be marked "Remington" or "Smith Corona", these were marked "National Ordnance".īack about 1968, I bought all the parts I needed to build an 03A3 (minus the receiver) from the Department of Civilian Marksmanship (DCM) for under $5. These rifles were made in California by a company which cast replica 03A3 receivers and then built rifles on them, using new condition surplus GI parts which were available for just pennies at the time. This is an old thread! The original question was about National Ordnance 03A3 rifles. He finally put the torch down without a glance at what he's working on, pulls out a Shotgun News and finds a "match" barrel for me (he didn't show me the ad, just closed the paper quickly) and told me $250 installed.Ĭhuck is the real deal, knows these rifles as well as anyone and much better then most.
#National ordinance 1903a3 review install#
He glances at it and goes back to yacking at me, explaining how he'd install a "match" barrel on my Inland. So he's yacking away at me while this barrel is starting to glow. So the LGS owner took me into this side room and there's the "gunsmith", cigarette in one hand, propane torch in the other, silver soldering on a front sight on a S&W. The last one I wanted to talk to before I would let him work on a carbine. You sure got that right! I've seen more hacks then real gunsmiths the last 10 years. Hand them a 1903 to rebarrel, and likely its the first one they have ever messed with. Gunsmiths arent like they used to be 30 years ago, heck 15 years ago, barrel is not usable for a standard A3 action. Some N/O rifles were so far out of spec, they had to cut the shoulder and breech of the barrel so that it would index and headspace.
