very "other" - looking for rifle drawings

[MissingLink]

I do a bit of solid modeling in my "spare time" (if there is such a thing...) and I'm looking for arsenal drawings for the Springfield 1903 (or 1903-A3) rifle; even if it's just the receiver. I've got some crude drawings from "United States Rifles and Machine Guns" by Fred Colvin and Ethan Viall, but I'm looking for something a bit more "exact."

I've got plenty of other drawings I could trade if necessary.

They're selling these for $11.50.

Thanks for the links. I just contacted a guy who ordered from them and if they're what I'm looking for, I'll split the cost with him. I'd be happy to order it myself if they'd show me a scan of what I'm getting. Most of these places that I've seen or heard of promise nice drawings and deliver either homemade drawings or unreadable factory stuff.

I've got that one already, but thanks.

Sorry, didn't notice you mentioned it in your post. Old drawings like these can be very hard to follow. The receiver drawing is particularly "busy". You might have better luck trying to follow the machining steps. I'm a pretty fair hand in Solidworks. I'll read them over and see what I can do.
