Fred, I didn’t get a private message from you. I just looked again. I did get one from a member about the sight. I’ll send you one and see if you get it.

Re: Rear sight ID help!

Norwood, if you are wanting to put some kind of peep sight on this Krag, I'd be glad to send you a check for the rear sight. I could pay something like $40 plus shipping to me in Ohio if you are interested. I think a weird conglomeration Krag sight like this would be a fun addition to my Krag sight...

Re: Rear sight ID help!

I appreciate everyone’s concerns really. I already have a couple of Krags of my own and they are fine shooters. I’m former army and have always “grimaced” when I see a cut military but que sera sera.

Re: Bison, Coyotes, and Elk

No offense intended to anyone but I’m just curious as to why all of a sudden we have to refer to buffaloes as bison? I understand they are not “real” buffaloes but everyone knows what you’re talking about when you say it. I have a coffee can half full of old nickels. Do I need to call them bison nic...

Oh, and before I forget welcome to the KCA.
That’s exactly what I have. Pretty nice I think. I just put pictures up so if you’re game shoot me an offer and you can’t hurt my feelings.
