Re: 1899 cuban contract Remington-Lee carbine sling?
Thank you very much for your help butlersrangers, it's very interesting... [smiley=thumbsup.gif]<br /><br />Looking at the ammo belt, we can suppose that the Remington-Lee rifles and carbines were used with 4 spare magazines.

Re: New member from France, with a Krag.
Thanks again for your all your advices.
I will try this reloading at the range (200m/218yd) as soon as I get my 30-40 Krag dies and the aperture sight disk. I'll take some pictures.
Have a nice day... ;)
