Mr. Hosmer,
Thank you.  Last night I ordered/purchased a used copy of "The Krag Rifle" by William Brophy and a new copy of "The American Krag Rifle & Carbine" (the North Cape Krag book) by Joe Poyer.  I'm tempted to pick up "The Krag Rifle Story - 2nd Ed." if I can find a decent price on one.

I really appreciate your help and I'm sorry  that I got to asking questions prior to getting some "grounding" in Krag rifles.  This particular gun came up before I had any books to help me find answers.  I will have plenty of reading to keep me busy by next weekend! 

Have a great week.

Bob
