Conducted by Lieut. Col. G.C. Gray

No More Cut-Off Krags

Benicia Arsenal has announced that the supply of Krag rifles at that point has become exhausted. Therefore, the sales of rifles cut to carbine length must be discontinued. N.R.A. members on the Pacific coast are also advised that the nearest point from which regular Krag rifles may be shipped is Rock Island Arsenal, Ill. If another supply of cut-off Krags becomes available, notice will appear in the column. It is not likely that another supply will become available. A large stock of the regular Krag rifles remains available at the current price of $1.50 each.
