Title: Re: 1898 Krag Carbine question Post by butlersrangers on Jul 23rd, 2012 at 10:58pm
remington: Many of the 1898 Carbines were "up-graded" to 1899 Carbine configuration when they required overhaul. These 1898 Carbines will be found with the long for-end 1899 style carbine stock. I imagine 1896, 1901, and 1902 Carbine rear sights were all utilized on re-builds (with appropriate hand-guards). The re-built Carbines are legitimate issue arms. Just not as desirable as the unaltered version.
