Anyone have a list of what parts on a remington 1903A3 should have an "R"

I was just looking over my rifle and It seems to be nearly if not all correct. I was just wondering How many parts on a 1903A3 are actually marked "R" (or some other marking to signify Remington) to determine whether or not this is the case. Thanks.

Also: Where on each part should I be looking for an "R" (Might save me sometime.....some are hard to see.)

Haven't seen a list of what should be marked or how the finish should be, but it varies by serial number. These threads have some info and photos that may help.

The question of what the original parts and finish of a Remington 1903A3 comes up very often, as most 1903A3's were refinished during arsenal rebuild, reworked years later, or 'sporterized' in one way or another. The rifle displayed in the photo montage below displays an example of a 1903A3...
