Thanks much!
SN 351510. Bore excellent. 1901 dated stock. All correct except handguard removed and rear sight replaced with small hunting style flip up. Original sight will cover second hole from mod. Retains...
I'm all about the original. Just want it repaired right. ;-)
Thanks again. Looks like S&S for a sight blade and a few emails/PMs to decide on stock.
Thank-you all. Much appreciated. Into the safe she goes. Any recommendations on a source for a C-marked model 99 front blade or a really top notch (and reasonably economical) wood guy to tidy up the...

Thanks again. Upcoming local auction; I will likely take a run at it for the right price. Pics if I win.
Thanks! This one is in about 95% condition. Beautiful niter blue on extractor. The only obvious change is a commercial front sight blade. The rear sight is the windage adjustable type with the "C"...
Hi guys. Avid collector, infrequent poster. Can anyone check SRS for Model 1898 carbine 128074? Updated to 1901 fittings. Thanks in advance!
Much appreciated.
Hi guys. I have enjoyed "lurking" on this board for quite a while. I have two Krags in my collection; a 92/96 (original 1892 stock with rod channel filled) SN 12022, and a nice 1898 made in 1901,...
