I'm not too well versed in these rifles...

What is rare or significant about this one that commands that price?

This rifle has been sporterized, which kills the collectability in the eyes of most collectors unfortunately. GLWS

Nice rifle...but its not a 1903A3....as those were only made in WWII by Remington and Smith Corona.

You have a sporterrized 1903...again nice rifle and good luck with your sale.

You can buy full military configuration untouched 1903's for under $1000. Where did you get $3000 for this sporterized model? Is it some special variant or model we're not aware of?
