Re: Grandpa's Krag

Thanks, Waterman. I’m thinking I won’t change anything. I like the idea of having it like they used it. Maybe I will learn more about Krags and look for one that is more original, or that I could make more original. With this one, though, I agree with your first thought. Nice to have the family hist...
