This one just same today - a nice June 1919 dated M1903 Mk.I Springfield. It's in a WW2-era scant stock with stamped buttplate, but otherwise original and in good shootable condition. It's a Mk.I, so it has the cut for the famous Pederson device, though of course didn't come with it - most of them were busted up for scrap in 1920 and survivors go for 20K+. Mk.Is are quite rare, but there's a very disproportionate number in Canada. Springfield's in general are rare up here, but it seems like 1 out of 3 or 4 you see is a Mk.I.
