Re: Great ideas - a look to the future
Times are changing quickly . You used to be able to shoot cougars in chicago. (not those kind ). Now the cougars relatives would settle out of court for an undisclosed ammount.

Re: 1899 Krag Carbine
A lot of Krag carbines had swivels added after leaving Uncle Sams warehouse. It seems some had swivels added while in service. Either way its part of the carbines history.

Re: 1899 Krag Carbine
Welcome to the KCA. From the pics shown it looks like you have a nice 1899 Krag carbine. One thing that is not original to your carbine is the front sight blade.

Re: FWIW - Conflicting Data
Were these recievers serial numbered before or after proof firing? If after i wonder how many rifles never made it into service because they failed?

Re: Brass Muzzle Cover Price!
When you get two bidders with money that want something the skys the limit. There are some minute differences between an original and repro muzzle cover. The spring for one thing. To a trained eye it is hard to match a real 120 year old patina on brass with one that was dipped in vinegar and put out...
