Hi allI just purchased my first 1903a3 made by Remington, serial number 34882xx. It wears a 2-43 Remington barrel.

The question I have is about the stock. It is a pinned stock with crossed cannons and FJA on left side. Circle P near trigger guard.
Further down the left side are the letters RA-. That is RA followed by a dash.

Is this a correct early pinned Remington stock without the RA stamp near the crossed cannons and FJA?

ETA: This is a CMP Service grade rifle

That "RA-" stamp looks much like the often seen "RA-P" marking from Raritan Arsenal in NJ.

Agree on that
