Hello all,
I recently acquired a cir. 1928 manufactured SA 1903 but the bolt was manufactured around 1917 (code i8). I have not fired it as yet, since I don't want to find out the hard way that the thing might blow up in my face. The seller was sure it was fine, saying his buddy had fired it before. So the question is - is there a safe way to test this rifle out?
Thanks for any advice
