Re: 1898 Krag sights

It makes sense now. I just picked this up the day I posted and really hadn't done any real looking although I did question why the knurled sight adjustment knob was on the left and not the right. The number increments on the side are also backwards. With the naked eye, and mine are stark naked, I co...

Re: 1898 Krag sights

I am also considering a nice sporter stock for this one as I have several originals. I did a 1909 Argentine Mauser with a Boyd stock but it seems they have stopped the Krag production. I have seen some others and I am going to keep poking around. Have any of you used a particular sporter stock from ...

Re: 1898 Krag sights

1898 Krag sights

Hello I just picked up another Krag. It was a good deal the action and barrel are all in good to great condition for its age. The stock is a mess. Someone sportsterized it and it's been screwed, glued, and maybe chewed back together. I do have an old empty Krag stock which I may use or I may keep th...

Re: Identifying my buddy's new Krag Carbine

I have to admit I was excited at the first post, then really liked the photos. Then it turned. Once i got back from getting sick, caught the gag, ate some blood pressure meds, it got better. Whew!!

Re: bought a new Krag today

<r>Here is my attempt at attaching some photos.
