Title: Source for a 1901 site part
Post by IditarodJoe on Mar 29^th, 2010 at 1:31am

Hi all. I recently bought my first Krag and it's missing the rear sight elevation bar locking screw. Does anyone know of a source where I might find one of these? Thanks.

Google S&S firearms. Look on page 26 and page 30. There was also a guy selling one last week on Ebay. I needed one for a 1902 sight. He said his wouldn't work, his fit the 1901.
But told me where to find mine at S&S firearms.

Just checked, your knob is still on Ebay. It's listed as an 1903 Springfield sight knob. They're the same. fit's the 1901 Krag sight.

Thanks for the heads-up Terry. I don't have/want a PayPal account, but I'll order one from S&S. It looks like the one on page 30 is original while the one on page 26 is marked Repro, so I'll order the former.

Appreciate the help. :)
