Two Wars, One Action

The span runs from WWI-era Rock Island receivers to WWII Smith-Corona 03-A3s — the simplified wartime build with stamped parts and a receiver-mounted aperture sight. Same .30-06, same action underneath.

Early low-serial Springfields are collector territory (inconsistent heat treatment below roughly 800,000), so every listing flags maker and serial range up front, with photos of the actual rifle.

Common Questions

How does buying a firearm online from Old Steel Arsenal work?

Every firearm ships to a licensed FFL dealer of your choice — pick your dealer at checkout and we handle the transfer paperwork and shipping. See our FFL & Shipping page for the full process.

What's the difference between an M1903 and an 03-A3?

The 03-A3 is the simplified WWII version — stamped parts and a receiver-mounted aperture sight instead of the barrel-mounted ladder. Same .30-06, same action.

Are low-serial-number M1903 receivers safe to shoot?

Early Springfield receivers (below ~800,000) had inconsistent heat treatment and are generally considered collector pieces. Our listings flag serial range and maker so you can decide.
