Title: Re: New to Krag Rifles with Questions
Post by lgr1613 on Dec 1st, 2018 at 11:13pm
Thanks for the comments! The barrel appears to be original and is 30" long. The front sight base also appears to be original, brazed on, shows no signs of tampering. I measured the full length of the blade as installed and it is 13/32" which translates to 0.406" approximately. I have no idea when the 1902 rear sight could have been installed. The sight screws were not originals, which makes me doubt it was arsenal installed. I guess an earlier owner could have taken the sight off, lost the screws, and replaced them with what could be found.

I do not have any photos as of yet.

Thanks again,
Lewis
