Clyde,<br><br>Thanks for the two photos you e-mailed me. Unfortunately, I can't find anything like them in my Handbook of Military Rifle Marks. Do you know any of the history of this gun? The reason I ask is that the marks may be something to do with a National Guard unit or American Legion post or ...

I can't find anything right away that matches your description. Photos would probably be helpful. If you could send them to me at my e-mail pbutts@stny.rr.com
I may be able to figure it out.

James,<br><br>Good choice!!!! I don't think you can make a better selection for a deer rifle than a sporterized Krag!! I have quite a few different ones that I have hunted with for years. Some still have the original military sights others with nice Williams peep sights and some with scopes (standar...

An excellent peom!!!! I really enjoyed reading it.

Gil,<br><br>I must offer to you my <u>most humble</u> apologies!!!!! I addressed my previous comment on this post to the wrong person. My brother Ned just brought this to my attention. When I read the initial post I was in a hurry to respond to it and I didn't even think. Yours was the last name I s...

Gil,<br><br>Just for future reference, the post you have started here is not a forum item but a classified item. We have a classified section of our site and that is where this should have been listed.<br><br>Because you have already gotten responses on the forum, I will not move the post to the mem...

Nord,<br><br>Good point, well stated! It is interesting how words like "sniper" and "carbine" and "bayonet with cavalry scabbard" get thrown around quite generously on auctions. <br><br>And, nice job not biting! I know you are not dangerous, and one of the good guys!!! ...

Well!!! I didn't mean to start such a melee!!! I hope we can all let this pass and remain on good terms and respectfull of our resident experts here. Let's all look back on this and laugh together that someone has spent that much on a gun like this!! Ned does make an excellent point about this price...

Have you all checked out the Norwegian "Sniper" model rifle on the Gunbroker auction site? Now I like a rare, Norwegian Krag as much as the next guy, but these people are getting carried away!!!! The bidding is up to over $3500 and it still has something like 6 days left!!!!<br><br>I don't...
