thanks guys!!!
my used to be a bubbasized krag. (sorry bout the pixs) (You need to Login i have changed alot of things... (You need to Login (You need to Login (You need to Login (You need to Login i've gotten the orignal stock that used to be my pappy's. i put on a lower band from s&s firearms. i took off the back sight so i could put on a redfield peep sight(102k?). the orginal stock was blackened from up in the rafters from my pap's basement. i used steel wool until i could see the grains from the wood(took about a week to do). then it was another 3 or 4 days using johnson's paste wax. it took 3 or 4 days to take out the screws that held in the rear sight. thank God for kroil!!! i would soak the screws with kroil two times a day. each time i tried using a flat head screwdriver but it was a no go. i didn't want to bugger up the screws. finally the last day the screws about fell out!!! then i tried to degrease the screw holes the best i can do, then a candle plus a lighter did fill up the screwholes. i did the redfield sight soon after. so now i have a new/old krag. ;D |
