Title: Re: What do I have? 30-40 krag Post by psteinmayer on Feb 24th, 2014 at 9:47pm
Welcome to the wonderful world of Krags!
Looks like you have an 1898 rifle. Fortunately, your barrel has not been cut. The stock has been shortened to carbine length, but this can be repaired by grafting on a new forestock. Otherwise, it's not too bad looking. The cartouche on the left side of the wrist is the inspection stamp. The mark behind the trigger guard should be a circled P and this indicates that it has passed "Proof." There are more knowledgeable people here who can tell you more than I can! Again, welcome! |
