I am looking to buy original and complete Danish Krag Carbines. I will pay fair prices for any of the models.

Marty,<br><br>Great post!!!!!! Thank you for sharing this knowledge. You are right, there are too many shysters out there that advertise "authentic DCM carbines" for outlandish prices.<br><br>I appreciate you sharing your knowledge ( and all of the time you put in on the research ).<br><br...

Just wanted to chime in and say "thanks" for this very informative post on reloading. I'm sure it will help Mike out a lot and it is nice to see all of that reloading information compiled together in one place. Even for those of us that have been reloading for a while. Well done.<br><br>I ...

Greg,
