Matty - Start a new thread and attach some clear close-up pictures of your short Krag. The guys will guide you through and explain what you have.

Sharp focused shots of sights, muzzle-crown and markings are the most revealing.

Welcome to the KCA Forum!

Hi !

Just a note to say hello - new US Krag owner - and fell in love with it for some odd reason.. :)

Hmm,
Why do we like Krags?
The magazine box would be ugly except it is so nicely machined. Sure feeds nice. Check.
All the parts are nicely machined and finished. Check
Bolt works as slick as snot on a door knob. Check
Stinking things are accurate. Check
Family history, I am old and I have one that belonged to my grandfather. Check.

Interesting history on all of them, we have a lot of fun trying to figure out arsenal rebuilds and kitchen table modifications. Check

Hmm. Seems like there would be something wrong with someone who did not like Krags. Unless they just have not been introduced yet.
