Re: Thinking about selling my 1903 dated Krag rifle, bayonet, leather sling

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: 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 8-)

Re: My 2nd Krag - May 1903 Rifle in 1900 Stock

Well, I’m leaning on the 50% that your hunch may be right because that means I don’t have to try to find a .22 caliber practice rifle to buy😂

Re: My 2nd Krag - May 1903 Rifle in 1900 Stock

If butlersrangers assumption is correct I may already have a .22 cal Gallery practice rifle, at least the stock😂

This is from the post he did on my JFC stamp on my 1902 Krag Rifle;
