The US Rifle Model 1903 is a very collectable firearm in its original condition. However, we cannot appraise a firearm without knowing the condition. They are typically $600 to $1,200 if they have not been altered from their military configuration. Please note that your rifle is an "early" Springfield, made long before 1918. There WAS a problem with the heat treatment of the receivers (frames) for SOME of the Springfield M1903 rifles made before February 1918. Firing any Springfield rifle below serial number 800,000 can expose the shooter to serious injury or death, and is NOT recommended.
