New Krag

[Kragrifle]

Will have to find the rifle.

Just to add my 2 cents worth: most every one is thinking in terms of arsenal and unit arms racks. The U.S. Navy also had Krags, which were kept on board by the gunners mates except when issued, say for a shore party. I've seen GMs in action. They get bored and work on the weapons. They might oil and polish them, or they might swap parts around. If a sight gets broken they might rummage around the gun locker and find a serviceable replacement. Just a thought.

It looks like the site has been on the rifle a long time. However for 2200.00, I think I got a good deal???








LOL-525.00 shipped.

I think that for $2200.00, you should've gotten a much better Krag.

See last line-LOL-525 shipped! I think It was a good price. Even if rear site incorrect!

[Fred]

For $525.00, you did Excellent!

Sell another M1. Buy an 1896 rifle with the 1902 sight installed. Swap handguards and sights. Then find the 1896 sight. Peddle the 1892.

Problem solved.

Everyone cool with the look and fit and finish of the handgaurd?

[madsenshooter]

I noted no dents or dings like the rest of the rifle, very sharp edges, and a finish different from the stock. Could be repro, but if so, someone got the color pretty much right.

Looks like just a little flater finish. A little gunny paste and it would probably match perfect. I did not think it was all orig. But for 525. I could not pass this one up. Stain is almost a dead on match.
