I was at the Louisville Ky gun show yesterday and saw an alledged Remington 1903a3 wrapped in green paper that had grease between it and the rifle. The box had a Railway Express bill on it and also a serial number. The owner will not remove the paper but is positive the rifle is new. From reading Bruce Canfields book I was lead to believe that the new unissued pieces sold through the NRA/DCM/CMPicon were not wrapped in grease but rather the arsenal rebuilds were for long term storage. Feedback/opinions would be appreciated. Greg
