Here's a thread I posted way back in 2010: Curl's 1903 M-S

That's an absolutely lovely M1903 you've got there, Curl.

What did you do about your bedding concerns? I had read about the issue before, but mine is a takedown (M1910, 9.5X57) as built by Steyr which, though cursed with the small lug, does have that nice bit of steel at the wrist that the tang slots into.


Even so, this one (not mine) has had a cracked wrist repaired (two brass pegs are visible).



Your 'extra long barrel' would have been a $15.00 US cost option in 1939 (from Stoeger).
