Don (and Nord ),

Josh (our webmaster) and I combined forces to download and send the photos to Nord. I am pretty sure they should have gotten to him. Let me know if something didn't work.

Re: Model 1895 Norwegian Krag Cavalry Carbine

Remember, if you take it to a dealer, they will most likely be offering you less than the actual value because they want to make a profit o...
