Title: Re: using Krag carbine stock on rifle barrel

Aside from it not being "right", there would be no harm, but if the barrel is still 30" it will look very strange, and, if you think rifle stocks are expensive, wait till you price carbine ones, unless of course you have one already?

BTW, Krags (unlike 1903s) did not have "upper" handguards, only lowers - from receiver to lower band.
