I posted on the Scout site a year or so ago about my wife's grandfather's old collection. He has two 1903a3 Springfield's, a 1917 Enfield, several old Remmys, Win 70's and an M1...Not to mention an original 20x Unertl.
Everything still has original bills of sale from the post WWII war Dept. Problem is, he shot most of these at Camp Perry in the 50's & 60's so they are sporterized.
Where is the best place to start for original restoration? I am interested in building a WWI era 1903 with bayonet etc. All parts, barrels etc are still here, except for the original stocks.
Any guidance on books, resto businesses, parts suppliers to get me started would be appreciated. Thanks!
