i'll have to double check. i don't think that is on this one. so it would be a converted '03 most likely. what are the differences in the rear sights?

there isn't any, orginal 03's had the numbers in turkish, part of the conversion was to put on rear sights with western numbers which are identical to the 38'sOriginally Posted by hogmister
Just on a side note I don't know that it's even correct to call them "03/38's" because I have one dated 1935 that is the same configuration it just has different style markings (though they say the same thing). so evidently the turks began converting rifles before '35.

what i heard was the "M-38" name was given to them by U.S. importers to distinguish them from other variants. so slight differences in conversion years is to be expected i guess.
No idea about that, I do have an older book that details the 03's as 03's, but the examples given haven't be converted to m-38 configuration
