Title: Identification assistance?
Post by Matt on Jul 5th, 2011 at 10:08pm
Hello!  Thanks in advance for any help - I've searched myself silly online, and can't seem to find any experts locally to help me.

I have a Krag, inherited from my late father, and was hoping somebody here could assist me in identifying it; here's all the info I've got:

The Serial No. is 33296
The gun says it was made in Copenhagen (gevaerfabriken kjobenhavn) in 1892.  Under this, there's a line with "m. 88."

I've been looking all over online for similar or identical pieces, and though several look "close", none of them seem to be *quite* the same kind of gun...it seems like a lot of references are made to 1892s being made in the US, which doesn't jive with the Copenhagen reference on the gun itself.

Any information *very* much appreciated!
Thanks so much, Matt.
