Title: Re: My half faux 1901 Carbine Post by psteinmayer on Oct 21st, 2016 at 11:34am
Looks like a very nice shooter. It should provide you with years of fun!
One question... in another thread, you stated that you had a correct carbine barrel. Is the receiver marked 1898 or 1899? If it's 1899, then it is definitely a carbine receiver... but if it's 1898, then it's definitely a rifle receiver. You didn't state which. Sometimes, a competent gunsmith would reattach the Krag front sight post after cutting the rifle barrel down to carbine length. If yours is not a true carbine receiver, is it possible that the post has been reattached? Just curious... |
