I do not have an online shopping cart. Once installed, that piece of software will automatically bill each customer for everything. As I run out of original material, I am constantly having to change customers' orders. Most orders would require more work issuing credits. If I were selling newly made items, online clearance of credit cards would not present a problem. All credit card and contact information is on each page. You can call in your credit card, email it, or send it by mail.

Trigger Guards, 03A3, 03A4
I have a large quantity of 03A3/A4 trigger guards. There is plenty of choice to choose from. Most are parkerized light gray to dark gray. Please understand I cannot guarantee color. The cost of sorting by color would double the prices shown below. If color is important I recommend you search the gun shows in your local area where you can see what is available.
I have no plans to refinish these. I prefer to keep them just as they were released on a government sale. Most have some slight bright spots from wear but overall the finish is approximately 75% - 90%. Bright spots appear but mostly on the outside of the "loop".
Click on the blue text to visualize what is being explained.
The trigger guards have certain characteristics depending upon period and maker. Reinforcing bends for strength are located near the Front Guard Screw well. Straight were used on Remington, curved were used on Smith Corona.
Both contractors produced guards in early and late configuration. The change to a larger "Loop" for clearance with heavy gloves determines early versus late manufacture.
Remington and Smith
Corona produced guards with "Pads". A pad is a piece of steel welded into
the front of the guard, which distributes the force over a larger area. This
eliminates the guard digging into the stock which hurts accuracy. The guards
with pads are not plentiful. They are preferred by shooters and those restoring
03A4's.

Return Policy
|
Every item sold is guaranteed to function as
originally designed. Items purchased which do not function as originally
designed, will be replaced at no charge to the customer. Items purchased
for uses different than they were originally designed, will void the
guarantee, and those sales are final. Returned items must be in the same condition as when shipped and
any alteration will void our guarantee. Call or email if in doubt, we are
here to help. Items purchased and then returned due
to customer error will result in a restocking charge of 25%. Sorry but I cannot sell parts based upon color requests. Nobody on the internet can match their parts with your rifle, which is hundreds of miles away. Ask and it will be recommended you attend a gun show with those items you want to match and compare them with what is available for sale. All items for return must be tendered
to the returning carrier within one week of receipt by customer. We
recommend high value items be returned via UPS to our return address on the
shipping label.
