What makes that serial number interesting? Just curious.Dick Hosmer wrote: ↑Thu May 09, 2024 3:05 am Interesting serial number! Assuming that it has not been cut-down, how long is the barrel (30" or 26"), and what is the highest number on the rear sight , 20 or 21?

Re: An interesting stock 'marker'
That is pretty cool. Yes, too bad it is not complete with the rifle.

Re: Parkhurst carbine
That's the way I understood it when I saw the actual clip. The "T" part of the clip was sprung back as it was inserted to move out of the way of the rim of the cartridges to allow them to freely fall into the magazine. Pretty ingenious.

Re: Failed Krag bolt-lug
I was looking at mine and thinking that the 'guide-rib' should act a a very good safety lug.butlersrangers wrote: ↑Tue Apr 30, 2024 7:24 am Thank goodness for the .30-40 cartridge rim and the Krag's robust 'guide-rib'.
