Re: Krag RIA Ammo Leather Case
Thanks Whig! I definitely will try to protect the leather. And thank you for the heads up on the indentation on the inside. It’s really cool and I didn’t realize they were used for trapdoors as well.

Thanks Whig!
There’s no hidden problems. Stock is in really good shape, bore looks great. and no pitting on the metal. I paid $700 for the rifle, $80 for the bayonet, and $75 for the sling.

Thinking about selling my 1903 dated Krag rifle, bayonet, leather sling
I’m thinking about taking my 1903 dated Krag rifle with its 1903 bayonet and 1903 RIA leather sling to the big Lakeland gun show in Florida this weekend.
What is a good fair market price that I should be asking for this all 1903 dated combination?

Re: Lucky Finds!! at military collector show today
Wow Whig!!! That’s an amazing looking collection of Carbines and a couple lonely looking Rifles in their midst.
I sent you a PM yesterday as well asking if you could help check my 1903 Krags serial number in SRS. Thank you!

Re: I got very lucky at a local military collector show today!
I’m really happy that I found these because they directly go with the 1903 dated rifle I got last week
