  1. Mannlicher, Steyr & Blackpowder Cartridge Rifles
    One of my 2023 acquisitions - my second Y.1903. Very happy with this one, as it's a bolt body match (cocking piece and safety have a different number) and is in better condition than my first one (even has a cleaning rod). The bore is in excellent condition by comparison and also sports a...

  6. "The American Arsenal" US Weapons - Past & Present
    Good morning all. I’ve stumbled onto a rifle I’ve been educated on, a Bannerman and R F Sedgley made 1903 clone. The firm made scrap metal receivers into firearms by stitching 1917 parts to a 1903 receiver. The gun was fitted with a 1895 barrel and bears no military proof marks anywhere.
