'Culpeper' - How long is the barrel of your '1895' marked Krag, (#25175)? What rear-sight does it have?
FWIW - Krags #25150 & #25181 are listed as model 1896 carbines in the Appendix of Mallory's "Krag Rifle Story", 2nd edition. The krag carbines with 1895 dated receivers were produced late in 1895 and were officially considered 'Model 1896' carbines. (If I understand it correctly). If your barrel is exactly 22", I'm guessing you have a carbine in a 'sportered' rifle stock. Why not post some detailed pictures? |
