Title: Classic Aftermarket Post by butlersrangers on May 26th, 2020 at 4:17pm
This Krag just sold on GunBroker, probably, for $150 too much.
It looks kind of nice with a good 're-blue' and a genuine 1899 carbine stock, that has been sanded and lost some detail. IMHO - This is probably a classic Stokes-Kirk parts 'carbine', with an interesting marriage of parts: barrel cut to 22" with sheet-metal aftermarket front-sight 1898 carbine rear-sight base with 1902 or 1903 rod bayonet sight 'top' 1899 carbine stock with 1896 carbine barrel-band In reality, this is a useful and practical rifle, but, not a Springfield Armory 'collectible'. I hope the buyer knows what it actually is and is content. |
