Title: 1896 rifle with a parkhurst
Post by d rail on Mar 5th, 2014 at 3:05am
I've always had a liking for Krags ever since I first started shooting over 30 years ago. I finally got my first one last week. It's a sporterized 1896 rifle serial #95xxx that's in good shape considering the barrel and stock have been butchered. I bought Poyer's book and everything seems correct. However, it has a Parkhurst clip loading attachment. I have found little info on the Parkhurst and was looking for input from knowledgeable collectors. Everything I've read says it shouldn't be on this rifle. I tried to attach a photo but the file was too large. I'll work on that.

Take pictures at lower resolution or alter them with 'Microsoft Office' for email posting or documents.
