Auction here on Thursday with a bunch of good old stuff advertised. Check out
www.auctionzip.com and search Mark Ferry, Guns, Ligonier Pa. Anything like that and you should be able to find it.
Anyway I been looking for a Krag carbine and there is a model 1898 listen, s/n 478342, as on a flyer picked up at a gun show.
But my book dont list any Krags in that range??
Maybe a bad book, but seems pretty good? Its the Joe Poyer book.
There are a few guns on there I'd like as I try and accumulate anything Springfield. I dont say collect cause my wife says we cant afford to be collectors, so I am an accumulator.
Now the bad news is, I am already committed elsewhere Thursday evening and cant go to this auction!!
Drat!!
But I may be able to go look at them before I have to leave?
But please, any explanations on that serial number??
Thanks as always you guys are the bestes'
Thanks
