Hello everyone.
I have a springfield armory 1903 serial 636705 with a P 4 9 stamped on the barrel. It was given to me a long time ago by my uncle and I still hunt with it today (take a deer every year) but know next to nothing about it other than what this website tells me. http://armscollectors.com/sn/usmilookup.php
The site above is saying that this rifle was manufactured in 1917. Should I even be shooting this rifle and since it's old and beat up, is it worth restoring?
Thanks for any advice or opinions.
