Hello all,

I am hoping someone can help me out.  I recently inherited what appears to be a Springfield model 1898 chambered in 30-40 Krag.  I am a gun guy, but I don't know anything about these rifles, and accurate online literature is hard to find. someone very obviously mounted a scope after the fact, but that may be the only modification as far as I can tell.  Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.  I am uploading some photos as well.  Thanks!
