Krag Collectors Association Forum

That is fantastic! Now where might I acquire one or two of those?

FWIW, loading time can be vastly improved with the use of a charger. If you intend on shooting in CMP Vintage Rifle Matches or the Roosevelt Match, a charger is almost a necessity for the Rapid-fire portion of the match!

How would you use a charger with the Krag?

I was finally able to take the Krag out and shoot it this weekend. What a great rifle it is! It was very accurate and a real joy to shoot. I can understand the loading method to be undesirable in battle but at the range I prefer it to the typical Mauser style. <br /><br />The bolt is a joy to operat...

Lucky you! I missed the boat on CMP Garands I'm afraid. Was going to go ahead and get a field grade, but those have even recently 'sold out.'

<blockquote>'Preston' - $375 for a nice Krag (and a family heirloom to boot) is a great price!<br /><br />Wow, I've never had a problem with the small extractor spring on a Krag. Did the part break or just come off the extractor-body?<br /><br />That spring is a tight fit into the extractor-body and...
