Title: Re: Krag WW2 Post by butlersrangers on Jun 29th, 2012 at 1:15pm
pattyd82ab: Is your Krag a U.S. model or Norwegian or Danish? There is no U.S. Model 1901 Krag. There is a 1901 model sight. Also, Krags accepted in 1901 would bear that date in their Stock Cartouche. The U.S. government had pretty much sold off their Krags or given them to VFW posts by WW2. I think I have read of Krags being carried on some U.S. Ships during WW2 to dispatch Marine Mines and late manufactured ammo being provided for same. I haven't heard of Krags being sent to Allies, like 1917 Enfields and 1903 Springfields were, during the desperate days of WW2.
