Wow! Original barrel with flat muzzle, M1894 bolt, matching parts, and original stock with ram rod channel still visible at the cut end. Quite a Krag. Is the butt plate the original flat one with the butt stock still uncut? I'd keep it the way it is and buy what ever else you want for shooting. That's an unusual find.

As far as I can tell the butt plate is the original.  I looks like my other two.

I have thought about it and have decided to cut the barrel back and make a carbine out of it since the stock has been cut already.
