Title: Norwegian Krag
Post by Haakon on Jun 29th, 2011 at 4:58am
I thought I would share a Krag rifle that I imported from Norway a few years ago.  My father shot it in Norwegian high power competitions during the 1950's.  It was made in 1917 ( 116284) and looks to have been converted to a competition model.  I have shot it a number of times; handloading the 6.5 rounds and it seems to be very accurate with the peep sights.  My father has passed away but I would be interested if any information of this rifles origin that can be derived from it's serial number.  My father lived in a very remote section of Norway during the war and did not mention any direct contact with the Germans. 

Thanks,

Haakon
