The second model is a shortened Krag - the Stomperud Krag. The Barrel is shortened by 15 cm to 61,3 cm and the front of the stock is cut some 18 cm shorter. It has about the same length as the K98 and came both as a 6,5 mm and a "soft" 7,92 for the really brave ones. These are rather scarce, are all produced in 1944 and have serial numbers between Nc 673 and Nc 1095.

i found this online, and it definatly sounds like a description of my rifle in question, however my serial number is Nc 637 so again im confused.

P.S. i have measured the barrel and it is almost exactly 24in long, which is very close to 61.3cm, but then i dont know exactly where to measure from.
