Question-Answer Discussion: Discussing Ford Parts Used in Smith-Corona Typewriters with a Rifleman
During the 1950s and 1960s, thousands of M1903A3 rifles were sold as surplus by the Director of Civilian Marksmanship. One such rifle, manufactured by L.C. Smith & Corona Typewriter Co., found its way into the hands of a civilian owner through an unusual trade.
The rifle in question was originally designed for military use but had since been civilian-owned. The trade took place during a celebration, specifically the celebration of the first child. A man, in need of parts for his old Ford pickup, offered an old gun as trade for the parts, an offer that was accepted as the man did not have funds at the time.
The exact model of the Ford pickup and the history of the rifle are not specified in the text. However, it is known that the rifle was later "sporterized," a common practice for surplus M1903A3 rifles repurposed for hunting and sporting purposes.
Despite limited research, the owner of the rifle has been unable to find any information about the identity of the gun. There are no relevant search results providing information about an ancient weapon that might be a ship-caliber short rifle, as indicated in research.
The owner of the rifle, now seeking help to identify it, has kept the gun since the event and has been wondering about its history. If you have any information about this unique piece of history, please get in touch. The mystery of this M1903A3 rifle remains unsolved.
