knute - I looked at the patent drawings for Andrew H. Russell's patent, #230823.

His magazine operates vertically and is off-set to the right of the trigger guard assembly and barrel breech.

The bolt-handle is a 'wimpy' thing and appears to fold forward.

FWIW - I don't see anything in the drawings that is remotely like the Krag-Jorgensen design.
