Custom Griffin & Howe 1903 Springfield Magazine Sporting Rifle

Custom Griffin & Howe 1903 Springfield Magazine Sporting Rifle

Lot # 201 (Sale Order: 201 of 600)      

Low Estimate: 3,000High Estimate: 5,000
G&H No. 678, 30-06, 22'' barrel with a bright excellent bore. This is a lovely G&H vintage sporting rifle. The barreled action retains about 98% original rust blue with the bottom metal fading a bit more, the bow of the guard and front extension toning slightly to a plum. The bolt body remains bright and shows nearly all of its nice cross-hatch burnishing and the receiver ways and follower are polished bright. The floorplate has been very neatly gold inlaid with an Art Deco-style set of initials ''HBA'' circled in gold (the ''B'' in the center being the largest, the initials actually signifying HAB). The checkered capped pistolgrip English walnut stock rates about excellent with a few very sparsely scattered very light handling marks here and there. It features a rounded shadowline left side cheekpiece, bone forend tip, blued steel pistolgrip cap and a length of pull of 13 5/8'' to the checkered steel trapdoor buttplate. The checkering remains crisp with nice mullered borders and there is a silver oval monogram plate along the toe line which is un-engraved. The arm features maker-installed quick detachable swivel bases and a very nicely checkered bolt knob with a flattened underside. Sighted with a hooded banded sporting front sight and Lyman 48 rear on the receiver bridge. Really a handsome vintage G&H rifle that will perform every bit as well afield as it will as an investment. (31007-24) {C&R} (3000/5000)

Springfield Armory 1903 National Match Model of 1924 Rifle

Springfield Armory 1903 National Match Model of 1924 Rifle

Lot # 202 (Sale Order: 202 of 600)      

Low Estimate: 2,000High Estimate: 3,000
serial #1263274, 30-06, 24'' 5-24 dated Springfield Armory star gauged barrel with a bright about excellent bore which shows the beginnings of some very light frosting sparsely scattered in the grooves. The barreled action retains about 98% later dark gray parkerized finish overall with a bit of light wear on the front sight base from removal of a stamped sheet-metal front sight cover. The bottom metal shows a bit more wear in the gray-green parkerized finish with some light dings and handling marks evident. The bolt body remains bright with restored polish showing only light operational wear and is numbered to the rifle with an electro-graver rather than DC pencil. The bolt shroud shows some good oil quenched case-hardening and the striker is the headless style with a conventional safety. The straight grip walnut buttstock and handguard rate very good showing evidence of a light cleaning but with good ''DAL inspectors mark and circled P firing proof, retaining the light dings and handling marks that come from the years. The coarsely checkered National Match buttplate shows wear around its periphery and the 1921 National Match-style stamped sheet-metal front sight protector is included. Conventional front sight is in place, the National Match rear sight graduated to 2700 yards with no top-notch present and the receiver wears a Lyman 48S receiver sight, neatly fitted without inletting the stock. A handsome arsenal-refinished rifle that no doubt still shoots very well and would be a lot of fun to put through the paces at the range. (3B1007-38) {C&R} (2000/3000)

Soviet SVT-40 Semi-Auto Rifle by Tula

Soviet SVT-40 Semi-Auto Rifle by Tula

Lot # 203 (Sale Order: 203 of 600)      

Low Estimate: 1,500High Estimate: 2,000
serial #ZhA6610, 7.62x54mmR, 24 1/2" barrel (27" overall) with a bright excellent bore. This is a very nice all-matching, non-import-marked and not Finnish-marked 1941-dated rifle. The metal surfaces retain perhaps 70% original blue with the loss due to overall toning to gray-brown patina, some scattered light dings and a bit more moderate oxidation staining along the top piston cover and left side barrel behind the rear sight. The bolt carrier remains partially bright showing some light oxidation staining along the top and knob. All markings remain intact and strong bearing proper Tula star stamps throughout. The smooth hardwood stock and handguard remain in very good plus condition and are mostly devoid of finish perhaps having been very lightly cleaned long ago otherwise just showing a couple tiny shallow chips along the edges and overall light dings. The arsenal markings on the right side butt have softened and the matching serial number remains intact and legible along the left side butt. There is no cleaning rod present, one original un-numbered magazine in near excellent condition is included and the action seems to function well mechanically. A very nice and desirable example for the martial arms collector. (13A9807-39) {C&R} [Vincent Coniglio Collection] (1500/2000)

Springfield Armory Model 1903 National Match Rifle

Springfield Armory Model 1903 National Match Rifle

Lot # 204 (Sale Order: 204 of 600)      

Low Estimate: 2,000High Estimate: 2,500
serial #1498630, 30-06, 3-37 dated Springfield Armory star gauged barrel with a bright about excellent bore which shows just the beginning of some very light frosting in the grooves nearer the throat. The metal surfaces retain about 98% later arsenal dark gray parkerized finish, the front sight band showing wear from the front sight cover slipping on and off from the years; the rear barrel band is blued steel. The bottom metal does show some light scratches and handling marks from the years, the floorplate toning slightly to plum. The bright-bodied N.S. bolt shows only light operational wear with perhaps some remnants of light oxidation; there is no number evident. The straight grip walnut stock is rather nice showing some subtle fiddleback figure throughout its length. It rates very fine to near excellent with a very good ''DAL'' left side inspectors mark and crisp circled P firing proof. The ways and follower no longer exhibit any polish however the checkered National Match buttplate shows good later parkerizing with only wear on the sharp edges and the rear sight is National Match graduated to 2700 yards; the barrel is star gauge numbered ''C/2525''. Included with the arm are a nice stamped sheet metal PJ O'Hare rear, and stamped sheet metal 1921 National Match front, sight protectors as well as a 1918 dated WT&B rifle sling which is still serviceable showing minor drying and flaking. While dated 1937, the arm does not have the A-1 pistolgrip stock as seen on 1937 match rifles, and more closely follows the pattern of the earlier 1921-1925 straight-grip rifles. SRS lists serial numbers on both sides of this as National Match A-1 rifles, this number was not found. A nice example that, after a thorough inspection, would doubtless make an excellent shooter and a respectable example of a ''National Match'' configuration '03 rifle. (3B9965-24) {C&R} (2000/2500)

Very Fine U.S. Model 1903 NRA Sales Rifle by Springfield Armory

Very Fine U.S. Model 1903 NRA Sales Rifle by Springfield Armory

Lot # 205 (Sale Order: 205 of 600)      

Low Estimate: 3,000High Estimate: 5,000
serial #620728, 30-06, 24'' 1-16 dated Springfield Armory barrel with a bright excellent bore. This is an outstanding DCM sales rifle with the NRA stamp on bottom metal. The exposed portion of the barrel retains perhaps 98% original blue while the front sight base collar shows moderate wear left and right from a sheet-metal sight cover. Both bands show excellent blue, the rear a polished blue, the front more of a subdued rust blue. The receiver shows strong oil quenched case-hardening, perhaps 98% remaining and there is a similar amount of bright original blue on the bottom metal. The bolt shows only light operational wear with strong original blue with a bit of toning on the knob. The bolt shroud shows strong oil quenched case-hardening with nice color case-hardening on the safety lever and the magazine cut off. The smooth straight grip walnut fingergrooved buttstock and forend rate excellent with only scattered very light handling marks and crisp ''JSA'' left side inspectors marking and nice circled P serifed firing proof. The finely checkered buttplate shows strong original blue and has a nickeled thong and oiler beneath the trapdoor. Included with the gun is a 1915-dated Rock Island Arsenal sling which rates very good showing a bit of drying and flaking on the flex points with some heavy verdigris. The front extension shows a good flaming bomb / NRA marking, the ''N'' just slightly light. This is really a superb example of the 1903 DCM sales rifle of the 1916-era, the serial number cannot be located in SRS. [As with all low-numbered Springfield 1903 rifles, this rifle is sold as a collectible only and no thought should be given to loading or firing it] {3D9965-6) {C&R} (3000/5000)

Scarce Springfield Armory Style T Target Rifle with Initialed Serial Number

Scarce Springfield Armory Style T Target Rifle with Initialed Serial Number

Lot # 206 (Sale Order: 206 of 600)      

Low Estimate: 5,000High Estimate: 7,000
serial # W.T.M., 30-06, 29'' heavy star-gauged barrel with a bright excellent bore. This is a very interesting rifle, it is clearly a Springfield Style T, with National Match parts internally, the portion of the receiver where the serial number is normally stamped shows no evidence of any serial number having been applied and has block letters ''W.T.M.'' stamped, it would very much appear by the arsenal, there no evidence of polished or removed metal in the area of the stamping. The barreled action retains perhaps 90-92% of a later parkerized-style finish, the bulk of the wear being fading on the barrel, primarily ahead of the nose of the stock. The bottom metal is primarily faded to a dull gunmetal gray patina as has the band, while the cupped checkered steel buttplate shows remnants of oxidation and light pitting. The arm is fitted with an appropriate BAR-style front sight base which mounts a Lyman globe sight and the rear ring of the receiver mounts a Lyman 48C receiver sight (the right edge at receiver neatly milled to accept the corresponding stripper clip cut in the receiver), both barrel and front receiver ring are Armory drilled and tapped for steel target blocks as-is correct. The bolt body remains bright and has no number on its underside which is correct for the style T, its handle has been modified for scope clearance, very nicely, professionally so, during the period of use. The underside of the barrel features star gauge number ''1288'', it measures 1.250'' at the breech and .860'' just behind the front sight band. The chrome vanadium National Match striker is drawing number ''C 64109'', the chrome vanadium National Match sear is drawing number ''B 147176'' and the right side receiver race shows three small pinprick punch marks. The walnut pistolgrip Type T National Match stock rates very fine with only light handling marks and dings from the years with small flakes to the rear of the armory recoil bolts on the left of the stock, with a light drying crack at the left of the butt, the sling swivel there showing some oxidation remnants as well. No doubt at the same time the bolt handle was relieved, the armory safety was replaced with a Buehler low-scope safety for clearance of the telescopic sight which was obviously once mounted on the rifle. A very fine and very interesting Style T, clearly very honest and with a very enigmatic serial number marking which appears in every respect to have been Armory-applied. (3C9965-67) {C&R} (5000/7000)

There is a peculiar partially milled depression on the left side of the front sight base that appears to serve no purpose and was likely a factory error given the late production of the rifle. All of the bolt parts are matching the receiver, the cleaning rod, dust cover and front sight hood are intact and the action seems to function well mechanically. Included is one scarce avx-coded magazine with "(Eagle) / WaA204" and impressed "K43" stamp that retains about 95% original blue showing some light edge wear and a few scattered small patches of light oxidation staining.

Low Estimate: 1,500High Estimate: 2,000
serial #14834, 7.7 Arisaka, 26" barrel with a bright excellent bore. The metal surfaces of this rifle retain about 90% original blue showing some scattered light high edge wear, a few minor dings and areas toning to gray-brown patina. Many of the components show the rough machining marks and finishing associated with late-war production and the chrysanthemum has been completely ground away. The screw heads show light slot wear and most are un-staked, the second digit in the serial number has been re-struck as a "4" no doubt an honest factory error and all other markings remain strong. The Asian hardwood stocks remain in about very good plus condition showing mostly worn finish, scattered light dings and mild abrasions, a bit more moderate along the right side butt and finger groove. The buttstock retains a crisp kanji stamp behind the pistolgrip. The assembly-numbered parts are matching by "839" and the remaining parts are matching by serial number. An original cleaning rod is included, the anti-aircraft rear sight assembly is intact and there is no dust cover present. A very nice example of these interesting and desirable Japanese rifles.

The buttstock retains a crisp kanji stamp behind the pistolgrip. The assembly-numbered parts are matching by "839" and the remaining parts are matching by serial number. An original cleaning rod is included, the anti-aircraft rear sight assembly is intact and there is no dust cover present. A very nice example of these interesting and desirable Japanese rifles.

Exceptional Colt Prewar Super 38 Automatic Pistol

Exceptional Colt Prewar Super 38 Automatic Pistol

Lot # 211 (Sale Order: 211 of 600)      

Low Estimate: 6,000High Estimate: 8,000
serial #19106, 38 Super, 5'' correct .530'' diameter pre-war Colt barrel with a bright excellent, likely unfired, bore. This is an exceptional pre-war Super 38 pistol that appears un-used, un-fired, since leaving the blue dome in 1935. The metal surfaces retain about 99% plus original blue, the loss being some extremely light handling marks at rear right of slide, and a few more extremely light surface markings which do not even breach the blue, they would not warrant mention were it not for the extremely fine condition of this lovely pistol. The blue overall remains very rich and deep and the bright-polished portion of the barrel above the chamber remains brilliant. The fully checkered walnut grips rate excellent to as-new with crisp diamonds. Included with the gun is an as-new two-tone ''Colt Super/38 Auto''-marked magazine. The gun functions well mechanically and the slide is properly numbered to the frame beneath the firing pin stop. The original purple-tone box is included, pencil-numbered to the gun along with the instruction sheet and Colts ''Special Instructions'' pamphlet. Included with a gun is an interesting ''Conditional Sales Contract'' from the Imperial Valley Hardware Company, dated May 1 of 1937. The agreement sells the pistol to a Pierce Hussey, and mentions the gun by serial number, Mr. Hussey paying $15 earnest money and paying the balance of the $40.65 purchase price in consecutive installments of eight dollars per month. The address is Yuma Arizona, care of ''USRS'', the US Reclamation Service, and the pistol was being ''used'' at the ''US Government Camp, Imperial Dam California'', Mr. Hussey obviously working on the dam project on the Arizona-California border, his home base being the USRS Yuma, about 18 miles south of the dam which was completed in 1938. A very nearly pristine prewar Super 38, investment-grade, suitable for the finest Colt or 1911 collections. (3C1014-4) {C&R} (6000/8000)

Scarce Japanese Type 99 Naval Special Bolt Action Rifle

Scarce Japanese Type 99 Naval Special Bolt Action Rifle

Lot # 212 (Sale Order: 212 of 600)      

Low Estimate: 1,000High Estimate: 1,500
serial #11687, 7.7 Arisaka, 25 1/2" barrel with a very good bore showing some light oxidation in the grooves and strong rifling. The receiver and small parts of this famously crude rifle are constructed of cast iron, with the bolt lugs actually locking into an extension of the steel barrel. The metal surfaces have toned to a deep gray-brown patina showing some areas of old minor oxidation staining and remnants of arsenal black enamel finish. The receiver is unmarked beyond the serial number and small preceding kana mark, and the barrel shank shows a number of faint small inspector stamps and tiny naval anchor atop the chamber. The hardwood stock and handguard remain in about good condition showing a little added finish, overall light dings and handling marks. There are some chips forming at the heel, small crack at upper tang and thin 3" and 4" cracks left and right on the butt, a small dowel is also set vertically through the butt just ahead of the buttplate. The firing pin is un-numbered and its tip broken, the other bolt parts numbered "024" and are of late-war construction. The rear sight screw, magazine follower and its spring are missing and the bolt stop spring tension is not quite right as the assembly sticks out when the bolt is installed. The action otherwise remains functional. This is a very respectable example of a desirable very late war rifle for the advanced Japanese martial collector.

serial #3245k, 8mm Mauser, 24" barrel with a bright excellent bore. The barreled action and bands of this 1938-dated rifle retain about 80-85% original blue showing some scattered mild oxidation staining and thinning to gray-brown patina, a couple specks of oxidation perhaps a bit more moderate. The bolt retains a similar amount of original blue showing operational wear and light staining while the floorplate, triggerguard and buttplate have toned a mottled gray-brown patina showing light oxidation staining. The extractor has taken on a deep plum tone and all markings remain intact and strong.

Australian No. 1 MKIII SMLE Bolt Action Sniper Rifle by Lithgow

Australian No. 1 MKIII SMLE Bolt Action Sniper Rifle by Lithgow

Lot # 216 (Sale Order: 216 of 600)      

Low Estimate: 6,000High Estimate: 8,000
serial #75778, 303 British, 25 1/4" barrel with a bright very good plus bore showing some minor frosting and perhaps a few pinprick pits in the grooves with otherwise strong rifling throughout. This arsenal-refurbished sniper rifle was built upon a 1917-dated rifle. The metal surfaces of this high mount rifle retain about 92% arsenal refurbished Parkerized finish showing some overall light high edge wear, a couple tiny pinprick pits here and there and most of the loss due to silvering and operational wear along the bolt. The Lithgow markings on the socket remain intact and strong and the top rear of the barrel is properly "H"-stamped. The Pattern 1918 (AUST.) scope retains perhaps 85% original blue showing overall thinning to gray-brown patina, some areas of light oxidation staining and minor dings, the ring screw heads with some minor slot wear. The brass fittings have toned to ocher patina and the markings remain strong with "A.O.C. / V.", "1944", "D (Broad Arrow) D" and scratched number "45508". The scope features single large post with fine crosshair reticle and the optics rate about good, slightly discolored with some moderate occlusions around the periphery but certainly serviceable and the elevation knob is functional. The fore-stock and rear handguard are coachwood while the buttstock and forward handguard are some other variety of hardwood, they remain in about very good plus condition with the handguards showing a couple small cracks along their edges, the forward handguard with a thin 4" hairline crack along the top and the expected overall light dings and handling marks. There are a few natural knots in the fore-stock that show some tiny drying cracks and the cheekpiece has been modified slightly showing a 3" area relieved along the forward edge. The fore-stock is stamp-numbered matching and shows proper wooden plug in the screw hole behind the middle band. There is an "M" stamped atop the wrist and softened Lithgow markings and 1940 date on the right side butt. The bolt, barrel and nosecap are matching the receiver, the nosecap arsenal-renumbered to match, the scope bases are matching each other numbered "1006" and the forward scope ring is numbered "856". While mismatched, the scope rings mount securely into the bases and the action seems to function well mechanically. A very respectable example of these rare Australian sniper rifles that would make an excellent addition to any advanced martial collection.

Low Estimate: 3,500High Estimate: 5,000
serial #B35310, 303 British, 25 1/4" barrel with a mostly bright near excellent bore showing some very mild frosting scattered about and strong rifling throughout. The metal surfaces of this 1944-dated rifle retain about 95% arsenal-refurbished blue and black enamel finishes showing some light high edge wear and scattered mild thinning with operational wear along the bolt body and some light oxidation staining on the knob. Most original markings remain intact with strong socket markings showing maker code, small "ENGLAND" importer mark and "TR" stamp. The model designation on the left side receiver is very faint but the "T" remains crisp and many of the screw heads remain remarkably clean. The No. 32 MKII scope and mount retain perhaps 80% black enamel finish with moderate flaking and thinning to a deep gray patina along the scope body, scattered light handling marks and the brass fittings toning to a deep ocher patina. The scope retains strong markings showing the model designation over "O.S. 2039 A / AK&S No18304 / 1945 / (Broad Arrow)". The rings are matching the base by assembly number and the scope and mount are matching the rifle. The scope features standard large vertical post with fine crosshair reticle, the adjustment knobs are functional and the optics are about very good showing some minor occlusions and mild yellowing. The hardwood stocks remain in very fine condition as arsenal-refurbished showing a couple small, perhaps moderate dings along the left side handguard, cheekpiece and edge of pistolgrip, a very thin repaired 2'' crack on the right side ahead of the socket and some other light handling marks. The left side wrist shows a strong "ENGLAND" import stamp and all stock markings remain intact and strong with proper "S51" code on the toe line, inspector stamps and matching serial number along the fore-stock. An original un-numbered magazine is included, the bolt is matching and the action seems to function well mechanically. The included case rates very good retaining most of its dark green paint showing some minor splits forming along the ends and the expected scattered dings. Also included is an original canvas-covered scope case that is mismatched (rifle #X31570, scope #24437) but otherwise remains in very fine condition showing a few scattered small tears, some mild staining and minor scuffs. A very nice ensemble for the British martial collector. (13C9807-214) {C&R} [Vincent Coniglio Collection] (3500/5000)

A very nice example with original rail hardware for the German martial collector. (13C9807-202) (C&R} [Vincent Coniglio Collection] (1800/2200)

German K98k Long Side Rail Sniper Rifle by J.P. Sauer & Sohn

German K98k Long Side Rail Sniper Rifle by J.P. Sauer & Sohn

Lot # 219 (Sale Order: 219 of 600)      

Low Estimate: 10,000High Estimate: 15,000
serial #8431u, 8mm Mauser, 24" "ce" Sauer-coded barrel with a bright excellent bore. The metal surfaces of this bcd 4-coded Astrawerke subcontractor receiver rifle retain about 95% original blue with most of the loss due to scattered mild high edge wear, some areas of minor fading to deep gray patina mostly along the floorplate and bolt knob, and a few scattered specks of minor oxidation staining. The rifle is equipped with proper checkered buttplate toning to a mix of mild brown and gunmetal patina and the scope mount retains about 97% original blue showing some scattered handling marks. The scarce dow-coded scope with integral sunshade and central adjustment ring is serial-numbered "19598" and retains about 92% original blue with most of the loss due to some light oxidation staining and fine pinprick pitting scattered along the bells along with a few scattered light dings. The scope body shows a green-painted "+" stamp and the optics are poor showing moderate crazing and occlusions throughout the field of view, and the reticle is almost completely deteriorated, objects can otherwise be easily distinguished when looking through the scope. The smooth laminated hardwood stock and handguard are both stamp-numbered matching the rifle internally in the appropriate font and remain in about good condition, the stock showing a number of noticeable lamination cracks with an 8" slightly flexing split along the comb, 3" thinner separation at the upper tang and along the length of the bottom. The inside of the stock also shows some stamped codes and dates "KI 4 - 19 - 44". There is a 1 7/8" added inlet along the toe line that has been filled in with some synthetic filler and the only external marking appears to be a strong "(Eagle) / H" Heer stamp on the right side butt. These minor stock issues could easily be addressed by a competent woodman. All metal markings remain intact and strong, the top and right side of the receiver showing Sauer's "(Eagle) / 37" Waffenamt, the right side also with "1 (Eagle) / 1". The Waffenamts along the barrel shank are poorly struck but the other stamps remain strong and the sight parts show "(Eagle) / 280" Waffenamts. The base and mount show proper "(Eagle) / 359" Waffenamts. The milled triggerguard shows a small "d" stamp, the bolt root a "1" and the safety is the proper shortened variant seen on the Sauer-assembled examples. The barrel bands, sight parts, floorplate, bolt parts and scope mount are all matching the receiver, the remaining smaller components being un-numbered. The original front sight hood and cleaning rod are also intact. This is a very attractive and correct sniper rifle that represents a scarce variant and would make an excellent addition to any advanced martial collection.

Scarce U.S. Model 1896 Krag Bolt Action Rifle with Stevens-Pope .22 RF Barrel

Scarce U.S. Model 1896 Krag Bolt Action Rifle with Stevens-Pope .22 RF Barrel

Lot # 225 (Sale Order: 225 of 600)      

Low Estimate: 2,000High Estimate: 3,000
serial #82862, .22 RF, 30'' barrel with a bright excellent bore. This interesting rifle was, according to Flayderman, fitted with a Stevens Arms Co. barrel produced by Harry Pope around 1905. The barrel retains about 96-97% original blue with some slight silvering at the muzzle and some scattered speckles of light oxidation. The bands and triggerguard have aged to a dark gray patina with tiny spots of old light oxidation overall along with some light silvering on the high edges and some light handling marks toning to a brown patina. The case-hardened receiver, sideplate and loading gate have aged to dark gray with some speckles of light oxidation staining and a small area of very fine pinprick pitting on the forward edge of the loading gate which retains a modest amount of original oil-quenched blackening in the protected areas. The body of the bolt is bright, the handle displays a light gray patina with some light staining and the extractor shows some remnants of original fire blue. The top of the barrel is double struck ''STEVENS-POPE'' midway down the barrel. The American black walnut stock and handguard rate very fine with a short hairline crack behind the upper tang and at the front of the handguard, a few tiny impact marks behind the bolt and a few light handling marks overall. The stock has no inspector's cartouche but a strong circled ''P'' firing proof is behind the triggerguard. The sling swivels, stacking swivel and bayonet lug are intact, the barrel is sighted with a dovetailed blade front and a Model 1898 rifle rear and the smooth action appears to function well mechanically. An uncommon and desirable rimfire chambered variation of these classic American service rifles. (23B9980-15) {ANTIQUE} (2000/3000)
