Remington M1903A3 Springfield Rifle M1903 – .30-06, WWII Production 1903 03-A3

This is a Remington M1903A3 Springfield rifle, chambered in .30-06 Springfield, with a barrel marked RA 8-44, dating to August 1944. Built during World War II, the M1903A3 was an updated version of the classic 1903 Springfield, featuring simplified stamped parts and a receiver-mounted aperture sight for faster target acquisition.

The rifle in these photos retains a clean parkerized finish on the metal with standard wear for its age. The stock shows solid condition with handling marks typical of a service rifle, and the markings remain clear and legible. The receiver is serial-numbered 5018835, placing it firmly in the correct WWII production range.

Perfect for collectors of U.S. military arms or those seeking a historically significant .30-06 rifle, the M1903A3 is both a piece of American history and a capable shooter. With its robust bolt-action design and war-era production, it represents the final evolution of the Springfield service rifle before the dominance of the M1 Garand.
