Thanks leadhead, excellent M1898 carbine:
So we can add yet one more to the small list of authentic M1898 carbines owned by KCA members!
We need more. 9/5002= .0018%

Ya'll need to take pity on a poor Krag-nut who's a friend to one and all. Someone with lots of Carbines should send ole Paul and anonymous Christmas gift! I'm sure he'd be eternally grateful... and sing praises to all!
;D

I'm updating the M1898 carbine list since it looks like a new poster has lucked into an authentic one. If this assessment changes, I'll correct it. Also, I found a posting by a KCA owner from the UK who has a correct M1898 Krag carbine and added him to this prestigious list. If I have missed anyone, please chime in!

Pictures of my M1898 SRC are attached. Serial number is 134317. It is a well used example, but I think it is an original, un-molested M1898 Saddle Ring Carbine. The stock has a 1898 cartouche and a M1896 C marked rear sight. I will be listing it in the Classified Section soon.
