Thank you for all the info, I will see what I can do with it. I emailed the S&K Folks and they said that the side mounted scope will not fit onto a Norwegian Krag carbine. They think that the fixed iron sight mount will get in the way of it. Though it looks like it might work, but... I figure I ...

hmmm interesting, that S&K mount would be really fun to mess around with, at least to keep from drilling and tapping if I can help it, and I find the side mounted scopes kind of charming. Though I wonder if it will fit, it seems to have that big front ring that will fit over the receiver, Will t...

So do you all think that it has some life left in it? I wonder if there is some way to mount a short scope on it. I wouldnt do that with my US Krag still in military dress, but this rifle has already been changed, so why not right?

Thanks for the replies! I got some more pictures. It does look like it is the original stock, but altered, a lot form the look of it! Here is the first spot, that looks to be the plug on the fore end. 2EDCE0BF-9AC3-4F87-A955-D0C6A8715A01.jpeg And this is the plug on the butt of the stock just south ...

Hey there everyone. picked up a new Krag, from what I can tell, it is a Norwegian carbine that has been cut down. It now is set up for a kind of Mannlicher style I am guessing? The front nose cap seems to be the old nose/bayonet band that was cut down and shaped to fit the front. The barrel is down ...

Hmmm Day glo I will look into that thank you.

What about scopes? What scope, if any, did the Krag have? What can be used without drilling into my gun, because I refuse to do that.

What would you recommend to brighten up the end sight? What kinda paint?

Hello everyone! I fixed the stock on my Krag, and got her out to shoot and its a blast! I only have one question, the front sight is hard for me to see, any tips? Paint or something I can remove? Did Krags have any scopes? Thank you much for all the info!

wow nice article! Thank you for sharing. It would be nice to get a leather case. Might be worth looking into. What book was that? <br /><br />Also, how did they install/remove the ejector? It just kinda flops in there and I found it interesting. I have no intention of messing with it, but curiosity ...

Well I would love to flaunt it at the house, but I figure it would be good to have a case that fits for hunting trips and trips down to the range. For some reason those guys don't like it when you come in with the gun ready to go haha.<br /><br />it is cool to see the crates that they came in. It wo...
