That one guys rifle sure is nasty with cosmoline and it looks like old cosmoline too! The worst kind, it gets all dried out and almost hard as a rock. :eek:

Damn. He hadn't posted the pics when I posted the link. Gonna take some cleanup that's for sure.

As of today my credit card has not been hit with the CMP charge yet. I sent in one of the early "lottery list" orders. I've read on CSP where they have a half dozen basket's full of orders to be processed . . . could be a long wait.

Saw a post over at Gunboards that the low serial # 1903 rifles will have the striker filed down and a notice not to fire will be attached.

The early returns do not appear promising at all.

Looks like I might just focus on the local shows in order to get a decent 03 Rock Island.
