Really did not know where to post this but here is the situation.
I went to the range yesterday, had fun, things were going pretty well.
Next to me there were a couple of 20 something shooting (of course) AR15's.
Nothing unusual there.
They would occasionally stop and wander over to watch me.
Nothing unusual there either.
After they were through and I was taking a break one asked me what the gun was I was using.
I Replied "A 1903 SPRINGFIELD BY ROCK ISLAND ,FULL DRESS, C-STOCK ,SOMEONE ELSE TAPPED IT SO I PUT A 10X ON IT"
Now this is the part I need support with.
They then looked at me and said, "WE THOUGHT IT WAS SOMETHING DIFFERENT"
I took this to mean some strange unusual rifle.
Really, am I that far gone that people do not recognize a 1903 Springfield and are they THAT unusual?
Should have seen the looks when they spotted my cast bullet loads.
I guess I should spray paint it flat black.
