Title: 30-40 Krag rebuild, NEED HELP!
Post by Sniper338 on Feb 5th, 2018 at 5:51am
Hi guy, new guy here.  Not new to firearms though.

I recently aquired my grandfathers 30-40 Krag.  I wish it was, but its not in great shape...  He chopped the barrel when he messed up the crown, broke the stock, pipe clamps holding it together, he drilled and tapped the receiver for a scope mount...  he hunted it it for years.

I want to rebuild it...  I have it all taken apart, I just cant get the barrel off, I dont have the right receiver tool, and I suspect it will need heated, and or a releif cut to get the barrel off...   I want to get it all refinished, blasted, re blued, new barrel and stock..  Id like to get the holes in the receiver filled and made back original looking, new upgraded condition..  iron sights and all...

I dont know where to go, who to talk to or much about sourcing parts for this gun...  looking for help to turn this old thing back into a new, old original looking gun.
