The only problem with filing down the front sight to adjust for an aftermarket rear sight is that it won't be right if you ever go back to using the '02 sight. On an otherwise original firearm, I'd vote for getting a repro from www.ssfirearms.com and save the original for posterity. Just my 2 cents....

Todd, <br>You'll have to prowl the gunshows, probably for a long time, to find the parts you need, and when you do expect to pay big bucks. You also need to be wary of the fakes that are out there. Usually you'll have more money tied up in a restoration than it'd ever be worth, been there and done t...

Welcome to the group.<br><br>Your rifle's serial number doesn't show up on the SRS listings, so no telling its service history. Sorry.<br><br>Check back through the messages for some disassembly/reassembly information. I seem to recall a posts about that subject in the last year. You're probably jus...

John,<br>Possible sources for the front band would be: local gun shows or S&S Firearms. Also, grab a Shotgun News and check out the adds for parts. <br><br>To get the magazine to feed, flip the magazine cut-off on the left side to the "up" position. If that doesn't work, you might have...

Frank,<br>Neither serial shows up in the SRS listings, sorry.<br><br>As for the '96 rear sight, Mallory's book indicates that serial 164125 probably wasn't issued with that sight. But that they were fitted to '98 rifles that had originally been issued with '98 sights, in 1900.<br><br>Regards,<br>Hal...

Chris,<br>You have a cut-down Krag rifle. 193792 isn't listed by SRS, however that number is right in the middle of 5 other '98 rifles issued to Co B 34th Engineer, Ft Benj. Harrison on 07/11/18. But that doesn't mean that your rifle was!<br><br>Enjoy it for what it is, and for the fact that you're ...
