Well, I don't know what you paid. And I'm no full fledged expert. But I think you did pretty durn good. The finish may not be original, but it appears you have all the right markings. I'd be happy to own it.

I could see a hairline crack in the handguard just ahead of the receiver, but the photos nicely disguised the bigger crack ahead of the sights... ::)  Like my other Krags, the rifling is pretty worn.

I did wonder about the stock finish, but not too hard given that the cartouches were still visible and...darn if it wasn't pretty good looking.
