I'm going to take her with me on one of my trips and do some inspection and disassembly.  She is my first and favorite Krag.  I bought her from an estate in Maine.  The deceased had gotten the rifle from his grandfather who got it from the DCM for something like $2.  The barrel was cut to 27" and it has Redfield no-drill sights.  The rifle has a lot of handling wear but the bore is excellent.  The estate administrator was the nephew of the deceased and he said the rifle had been in that form for over a hundred years.  Said his uncle killed many moose with it.
