Re: Oh ..... Rats
Hanevik book on the Krag-Jorgensen Rifle arrived yesterday.
Tons of great pictures and detailed content.
I guess my next book will be an English/Norwegian Dictionary!
A 1929 .22 conversion barrel is reminiscent of Harry Pope Krag .22 barrels, neat instructional cutaway, 'retractable sling' - (why not a coffee bean grinder?), and man's best friend helping with a 'pull-through'.

Dictionary? Google can roughly translate blocks of text for you. Now don't you be pasting English translations in such a nice book!

You think the Dog's name was "Patches"?

If you ever get to meet Karl Hanevik, you will find him to be a great guy and a collector just like the rest of us. I got my copy of his 1st book in person about 20 years ago. Had a great time talking Krags well into the evening. He was a Colonel in the Norwegian Army then and I had dark hair! He helped me with some parts to complete a couple Norwegian project rifles. Professional soldier. I think he is a General on the staff now.

Re: Oh ..... Rats
Paul,
I was wondering when you would notice that was me. I guess just like old Krag rifles we are showing some age.
