Managed to get hold of a Krag!

Post by erichhonecker »

Hello folks

Update on my previous post - found and obtained a beautiful Norwegian krag. All matching numbers - serial 75001.

Blueing is really nice and the rifling is sharp for her age.

I have given her a good clean and whatnot and took her out to the range.

The rifle shot really well, producing a good grouping at 50 yards. The action is smooth, recoil mild and the magazine a joy to use.

I cannot wait to get out to our outdoor Ranges where we regularly shoot out to 600 yards. That'll test my eyesight with those sights!!

Attached pictures show the rifle.

Take care all.
