[Orion Arms]

hey guys,
back in march there was a thread going discussing the cmp 1903 sales.

a company was mentioned in the thread that was selling the low serial number 1903s. they had an ad in SGN but i can seem to find it.

any help would be great.

thanks

I think that it was SOG

the ones we are looking for were the weak receiver 1903.

this will be a display only gun.

the company was not a main stream name.

It was probalbly Dupage Trading Company, they were selling them a while back I think.

WTK: Just bought Rock Island 10,XXX '03-Any info???

Any info will help. Its a 1904 built 30-03 converted to 30-06(SA 17 Bbl). Correct one bolt stock, all markings seem to be correct. Overall, NRA V.G.
Is this one of the CMP guns refferred to? or just accidentally came on the market?
Definitely NOT a shooter. A collector piece perhaps? Do you think it has any special value, being 1904 30-03 production?
