Thanks Ned & Mussonor for your insights. This has been the most informative site on the Krag that I have seen. keep up the good work.
I'll try and get the kids to help me with a few more pictures later.
When I was a kid 12-14 you would think nothing of throwing the 22 over your shoulder, walking down through side streets of town to the local gravel pit do a little shooting. Neighbors say "how ya doing" no big deal.
Today you even say you have guns people look at you sideways, and say "are you a gun nut"
I have gone out "shooting" only once in the last 10 years.
If I was to let a few of my rifles go, any idea of value on this one would be appreciated. Ballpark.
