'missedagain':

I didn't say your Norwegian carbine "wasn't worth much". I said the 'checkering' and 'mismatched' bolt lower its value.

Norwegian Krags are often encountered in North America with mismatched parts. Also, bore condition is often poor.

That said, Norwegian Krags are hard to find and they are chambered for a very popular cartridge.

A nice bore would raise the value and utility of a Norwegian Krag.

These rifles can have considerable parts value and restoration value.

You said the rifle is "inherited". Is it a 'Family Heirloom'? (Hard to put a value on that).

You also did not show us very much in your photo. (Makes it hard to estimate a value).

Norwegian Krags are desirable, hard to find, and expensive. Don't be too hasty.
