Re: Buried 30-40 ammo

well maybe if the Krag Group were to approach a vendor to make some I think they would give you a price per 100/1000 ectra, it is worth a try, nothing ventured nothing gained!

Re: Day 1 30-40 Krag Owner

welcome on board, hope you wishes for your rifle do come to pass as I have a Model 1894, Model 1896 and model 1898, while the 98 was very badly tore up but others. I hope I can take parts from the other two as I slowly restore them to make it a good sportier.
