Hi Dave! Let me add my welcome too!
I guess I'm of the same mindset as the others. Although a replica would be a reasonable idea, from a collector's standpoint, it would not be original. From a competitive standpoint, it would be great to shoot in an NRA High Power match with a modern equivalent of the venerable Krag, but the demand would be very small indeed. I shoot my 1898 rifle in Vintage matches all year, but replicas (as far as I know) are not allowed per CMP rules. So I agree there would be a tiny market for a replica, and the cost would far exceed demand. I truly appreciate you keeping Joe's legacy alive! It's comforting to know that if I happen to crack a bolt, or break a striker or gate spring, there would be a place I can turn to get a legitimate replacement. God bless you for that, and for remaining faithful to our beloved Krags! Paul |
