Title: Krag Springfield 1898 - 1903 Cartouche Post by mike7 on Mar 7th, 2014 at 3:01am
Hi,
I have a 1903 marked Springfield Krag. The condition is very nice, but it appears to have been modified. The barrel measures 26" and has the same front sight as a 1903 Springfield 30-06. The rear sight appears to be that of model 1892. The stock is very nice, as is the barrel and all other metal parts. I believe 1903 was the last year Springfield Armory made this rifle. Did the government modify these rifles after WW1? Or could this be a custom job done by a handy gunsmith? Looks great on display, but not sure what I've got. Thank you, Mike DSC01056.JPG ( 134 KB | 0
