Norwegian Krag, number 351, was built in 1898 at Kongsberg Vapenfabrikk, as a Cavalry Carbine model 1895.
It likely was altered at a later time to the Mountain Artillery/Royal Engineers sling arrangement. IMHO - It's only a wild guess as to when and how the bolt got switched. Since the action, stock, and likely barrel numbers match, I doubt if the bolt switch was official. (Norway was an 'occupied country' during WW2). |
