Title: Frank Mallory Appx 13 1906 Krag Repair Kit
Post by cquickel on Feb 13^th, 2020 at 9:19pm

In "The Krag Rifle Story" by Frank Mallory in Appx 13, he has a list of tools for the 1906 Krag repair kit. Has any one seen what this kit looks like. I assume it may look like the M1910 1903 rifle Arms Repair Chest and the M1917 Arms Repair Chest. But that's just a guess.

I found this photo on the internet of a circa 1908 "company kit" (for the Model 1903).

It seems to contain some of the items mentioned in Franklin Mallory's "repair kit" inventory contained in appendix 13.

I have one exactly like that but for the Krag.
The label isn’t near as nice.
I’ll try to get some pictures up...but that’s pretty much why it looks like.

I would love to see some pictures. These are neat old kits to collect and quite rare, it appears!

Here ya go, fellas.
Any thought on what these are worth? If it was in better shape and had the tools, I'd probably keep it but I'll likely ending up selling this one as it sits.

I hate to bother you, but could you also post a new more photos of the box especially the corners? I have a theory

Man, that would be quite the deal with the tools and in better shape!

I've never seen this before. Thanks for sharing.
