In addition to the Vintage Rifle Match that we can shoot our Krags in, during the National Matches, the CMP will be hosting a Krag and Springfield only match they are calling the Roosevelt Commemorative Match!  I think it's going to be fun this year!  More of of you collectors ought to become shooters!  (You need to Login to view media files and links)

It's likely that this is geared towards the Spanish American War era, so there may be quite a bit of shooters showing up wearing SAW uniforms and gear.  It should prove to be a great day!  I'm looking forward to going.  Maybe we can get a group together to represent this forum!!! 

You thinking of making the journey Chuck?

Oy!  I get left behind again by being over here.  My 1895 win musket should be ready by then but I will be in the land of the Muhammedans. 

Heeeeey.  I wonder if they will allow 1895 win carbines in 30-40 since it is a "Roosevelt" (spit) match and he bought something like a hundred carbines for the Rough Riders.

Don't know Paul... but I doubt it.  It specifically says Krags and 1903s only.  You really need to get finished up over there and get back!!!  We need ya in our ranks over here...

I doubt it also since Roosevelt (spit) bought the carbines for the officers of the volunteers and the men got Krags.
