As you may no I hastily purchased a sportized krag 1898. I found out after purchase it was a cut down and was very far from looking remotely original. I was advised on this forum that changing it to what I wanted it to be would be very expensive. I was told that buying what I wanted would be cheaper than modifying what I had. So.. I purchased this rifle and will try to sell the other. What are your thoughts? I can now focus on enjoying my rifle and working on a reload it likes. In stead of trying in vain to find what I need.

any info or thoughts on this one would be appreciated
