Whoa - yes, you read that right.  Trying to button up a pretty cool (to me at least) Krag project  (THANKS WHIG).  The stock I have currently had about an inch and a half taken from the butt to install a modified butt plate.  I'd like to return to original configuration and buying a broken stock is one such way.  If you've got one laying around that is maybe split through the wrist, etc, and is beyond repair - I need just the last 2-3" or so of the butt.  I don't need any metal bits, just the end of the butt stock.

I apologize in advance, I know this isn't a classified section, but the market for Krag parts is a small one, and I figure a collection of guys knowledgeable on the Krag sporters would be my best audience.

I actually use a Pachmayr Decelerator butt pad on my Krags when I shoot for any length of time. I have a set of three different sizes I use on a variety of milsurp rifles. I'm not a wimp but not stupid either. It saves the sore shoulder syndrome!

I think they should've issued those with the straight pull Steyr rifles!

Heck, have you shot the Jungle Carbine? That hardened rubber butt pad feels like a rock against your shoulder if you don't put a rubber pad over it!

I've got a SMLE, but not the JC variant.  Full power 303 with everything lightened and a 60yr old rubber butt pad?  Yikes!

And I may have found a 1903 springfield butt stock to try, I'm not sure on the contours, but it has the potential to be easier than starting with a rectangular block.  (And I ordered a decelerator for the meantime. :D :D)
