AzRednek Posted February 11, 2015 Report Share Posted February 11, 2015 I know Quick Karl and another board member expressed interest in the one I sold on Ebay with a stock. This one the seller claims like new, never used is sitting at $28.00 with 4 days to go. The one I sold with a nice stock fetched 225. I can't see sporting a Springfield but if somebody has one that has been D&T'd or anything else causing it to lose its value as a collectable. Possibly this mag assy will go cheap. Before I sold mine. I searched all over the net and could not find anybody still making them for Springfields. Did find a link to somebody that claimed he could alter a commercial Mauser hinged assy to fit a Springfield but if I remember right he was asking about 400 and I think about 200 if the buyer supplied the assembly. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Parker-Hale-Fancy-Trigger-Guard-for-1903-Springfield-Hinged-Floor-Plate-Gun-Part-/221684449417?ssPageName=ADME:X:AAQ:US:1123 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karlunity Posted February 11, 2015 Report Share Posted February 11, 2015 The price is very good if it is what he said that it was...I have not seen a price like that for a hinged Springfield or Mauser of 1917 Enfield in 30 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inthe10ring Posted February 11, 2015 Report Share Posted February 11, 2015 That particular trigger guard is for the PH rifle built 98 Mauser action. It is clearly marked 98/124 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've only seen one hinged assy in a 1917 Enfield and it was 20+ years ago. Today it would probably go for some major bucks. inthe10ring wrote: That particular trigger guard is for the PH rifle built 98 Mauser action. It is clearly marked 98/124 You're absolutely right. I went and took another look and saw the 98/124. Chances are good somebody will advise the seller.. Even if it is for a Mauser and it goes for under 50 bucks it is a bargain. Last time I looked for a Mauser hinged assy at Midway a few years ago, It was over $200. I'm tempted to bid on it it but I sure as heck don't need another project. My guess like most hard to find items on Ebay. The price will skyrocket the last hour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odies dad Posted February 12, 2015 Report Share Posted February 12, 2015 For what it's worth, a Mauser trigger guard will fit on a 1903 Springfied with a little modification. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken98k Posted February 12, 2015 Report Share Posted February 12, 2015 The Springfield bottom metal can likewise be used on a Mauser. Roy Dunlap describes the process in his book, "Gunsmithing." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
