A nice walnut forearm blank can be obtained from 'Schwartz' @ (   (You need to Login), who advertises in the KCA Classifieds.

A Krag front barrel-band with stacking-swivel and screws can be found on ebay or Gun Shows.

Parts investment for forearm restoration will run about $150. (Or you can enjoy your Krag as it is).

Caution - Most Collectors will not want a 'spliced stock' and restorations can quickly become a 'money pit'.

"parashooter" has posted this strong splice diagram in the past on the KCA Forum. (The splice is hidden by the rear barrel-band).
