Hello to the forum:  I picked this krag up and have question about the stock. It has all the features of a nra, dcm carbine. But like the old family dog it has no papers lol. It has an issue with the stock. There are cracks in the stock by the trigger guard. Should I try to repair them or leave them as are. If so what would be the best approach? They do not seem to go through the stock. It does have a good shiny bore so I hope it's a good shooter.  Thanks, kc
