Title: installing an 03a3 sight on a shortened Krag
Post by CodyM on May 17th, 2012 at 3:36am
I just bought my first Krag rifle and I have no clue why I waited for so long to get one.  It's an 1894 and some MORON put an aluminum scope mount on it and chopped the barrel/forend and pulled off the sights but it has a good bore and I want to make this a shooter and now start saving up for an unaltered one.  I've heard an 03a3 sight will fit and fulton Armory has a front sight base with post for $10.95.  My barrel is 21 3/16" or 22 1/8" depending on which side of the front receiver ring you measure to.  So how hard is it to put this sight on and are there any tricks/tips I should do to make sure it's done "right".  Thanks guys and I'm sure this is the first of many questions.  Thanks!
