Title: Re: What do i have? Post by butlersrangers on Feb 7th, 2014 at 1:33pm
Carlos_H: Welcome to the KCA Forum. Your Stock appears to be a shortened Rifle Stock with a nicely stamped '1900' Cartouche (acceptance mark). Your wood seems light in color and to have a nice 'tiger stripe'. It is probably Italian Walnut, which occurs in some 1899 & 1900 made Krags, due to a shortage of seasoned US stock blanks at that time. More and clearer photos would get more answers. (Attached photo is my Italian walnut stock for comparison).
