Dick is entirely correct.  This is a Krag Model 1898 Rifle cut down by civilians for Hunting.  Current value should be $300-350 for utility.

This is something that has frustrated me since my youth:  Utility Krags being portrayed and priced as something Collectable by people who should know better.

Ironically, that banded front sight base is interesting to me.  The blade is strangely positioned or distorted by shadow.  However, the base appears similar to 1901 Springfield proto-type.

(My hunch is that Springfield made a quantity of these early front sight bases and they eventually ended up as scrap and were used by gun smiths or surplus gun dealers.  I could be entirely wrong.  But, that banded sight base is unusual and of good quality).
