CMP has 1903 and .22 target rifles for sale

Probably no roadtrip for me ... Bet the line will be a line long -- would have to get there about 4AM to get a good spot in line!!

Really would like to go after a couple '03s (RIA & SC) BUT have spent all my gun money on .22s and .22 ammo .... SAD!!

I got the email last night. Check is in the mail!

My hat is in the ring for Rem and Smith-Corona 03A3's. Doug, is rebarreling the same for 03's and 03A3's?

Think I may try for another Kimber

It has Kimber 82G's listed used for $350. Quantity on hand: 60

It has Kimber 82G's listed used & rusty for $400 (in store sales only). Quantity on hand: 6

What gives?

If you aint in line at daylight 30...you will be SOL

Like others I have spent all the $ I can on guns for quite a while

Good Luck to the rest of you trying to get a lil dab

What does it take to order one (other than $350 and S/H)? I belong to MR&P, now. Does that qualify me to purchase?

Saw that also -- seems a little crazy to pay $50 more one they say is rusty -- do not mention rust regarding the $350 ones!! I would bet the $400 comes with iron sights and the $350 do not - just my guess ...

The sales page note no sights for any of the .22's. That's why I chose to skip them this time.

Who's going? What do you need from Magnolia, you're card? I let my VFW card lapse and need to renew.

Yep, me too. I sure wanted to get one of the 513Ts, but after around $200 or more for a set of sights and $20-$30 for a magazine I figured I woud pass too. $150 is sure attractive though.

Received Remington 03A3 from CMP last week. A Smith-Corona is being shipped today. The Remington is a very nice rifle; anxious to see the S-C. Will try to post pictures.

Finally uploaded photos of my "new" O3A3s. Doug, I don't think either of these will need barrel replacement.

VERY - VERY Nice!! Both of them. I feel like a fool for not going ahead and pulling the trigger for one of those SCs ... Got 2 Remingtons but the SC is missing in action!! Was concentrating way too much on the 22's!!
