'Cadcord' - Welcome to the KCA Forum.

Of course we want to know more about you, your model 1896 carbine, and how it performs at the Range?

That modified 1898 rear-sight looks peculiar on your model 1896 carbine with its sight-protecting barrel-band. But, there's lots to be said for having adjustable windage!

Oh ... got to go reload for my Range Outing.

Watch your 'social distancing'.

(Is that sight-base 1898 carbine or 1902 carbine? Both are rare sights and the converted eye-piece is rare).
