Krag Collectors Association Forum

Whig,

It seems Krag collectors also collect coins too. Which makes sense this Rifle and Carbines are tough to find....

Thanks :)

<r>I was able to spend a lot of time at the CMP South store back in 2003-2007 selected a few m1 Garands, 1903 springfields, and 1917 enfields. They told me back then that you will never get to select these types of rifles in this quality and correctness ever again. My grand father gave me his M1 Car...

Outstanding data, amazes me on why there are so many fake items especially sights with the Krag rifle and carbine, compared to other rifles like the M1 Garand or carbines like the M1 carbine. <br />I started collecting the modern stuff 1st and working backwards, now on the Krag.

Beautiful Rifle, Thank you for the pictures!! :)

For that serial number range, you got a good deal! Love to see pictures. :)

I had never shot one before, and it very forgiving for a guy that is not the best shot..lol Amazing carb...

Thank you! You are right on. To much meat gone. Amazes me on how many stocks have been messed with on the Krag series of rifles and carbines. :)
