Title: New member Help me Identify and restore this Krag
Post by Oldman04 on Feb 12th, 2019 at 4:37pm
Hello Folks! I have had this Krag for a few years now and I just don't know too much about it.  I would like to return it to original condition or as close as I possibly can.  But seeing that I don't know as much about Krags as I should I figured I would pick y'alls brains.
So here is what I do know
-Receiver 1898 with a 127027 Serial number
-Cut off gate removed and replaced by Pacific peep sight.
-Barrel is 22" with aftermarket sight.  Rear sight holes are ~ 2 3/8" spaced.
-No readable stock markings. I can see traces of where they were but looks like they have been sanded down.
-Stock is a cut down rifle length.
Shoots great and shiny bore.

Thanks in advance for any help.  I would appreciate and help or insights helping me with my restoration project.
