Re: puzzling parts
Hi
You are corect in asuming thise parts are norwegian. The holdback pin is itegral in the flange on the righ side of the extractor, the reshaped claws migt be from .22 converts.

Hi <br />The gun you have there is one of 1950 prodused that year, unfortunatly yours is cut down both barel and stoc and the upper handgarde is mising, this i think reduses its value significant. Here you can se one in original state http://www.kvf.no/vaapen.php?type=Rifle&weaponid=RIF0200<br /...

Re: 6.5X55 Ammunition Safe to Shoot in 1912 Krag?
The krag was designed for a 3500 bar load, however later recommended to max 3300bar. Modern ammo is loaded from ca 2500 bar(6,5g bullet @ 800ms) to 3800 bar (9g bullet @850ms). you should never fire a 3800 bar load in a krag.
