Title: Re: Pump action Krag

I just spent an hour going through the Krag listings on 'gunbroker'.  I have to do that once in a while, though it always makes my blood pressure rise.  There is a guy in Cazenovia, N.Y., and others, who has been listing the same 'bubba junk' for years.
  There are a scary number of "Bogus" carbines and sights for sale, that are billed as the real thing and listed for big bucks.
  What I find especially regrettable are two individuals, one in Florida and one in Oregon, who are scraping Krags at an alarming pace and auctioning the parts on 'fleabay' and 'gunbreaker' at high prices.  I find this a lot more objectionable that a gunsmithing experiment of 85 years ago!  Just MHO.

(Here is the sad fate of a Michigan National Guard Model 1899 Remington-Lee).
  Unfortunately, it is priced too high on gunbroker for me to consider buying it for a restoration project).
