In a different KCA thread, there are pictures and discussion of original unfinished Krag parts and other items that likely came through "Bannerman's".
Joe DeChristopher (now his grandson - Movieman630/Granpa's Gunparts) and S&S Firearms are good sources for Krag parts.
(IMHO - It is likely some of their inventory passed through Francis Bannerman's company).
Yesterday, I was looking at a couple of old catalogs from S&S Firearms and the late, Joe DeChristopher .
S&S Firearms has been reported to have some 'family tie' to Bannerman's.
Joe DeChristopher's catalog had some interesting content on "Parkhurst Device" Krags and the Board of Ordnance & Fortifications rifles.
(Joe's 'observed serial numbers' are already listed in the KCA data sheet. They appear in Mallory's "KRS", 2nd edition, appendix 19, page 247).
Its fun to look at old catalogs!
