My new 1902 Krag

After shooting my good friend's specimen from 1898, I knew I had to have a Krag of my own.  A local shop, Jackson Armory in Dallas, had 10-or-so Krags on the rack, priced very reasonably.  I picked a nice example from 1902 with a great bore.

Took it out for the first time this weekend.  My first two shots on a steel silhouette at 100 yards were center mass about 2-3" apart.  I picked up a repro M1887 sling for it and a Lee Classic Loader (the whack-a-mole kind).  These are such great old rifles!  One of these days I'll have to get a carbine to keep it company.

Is that a Krag-Jorgensen in your lap .... or are you happy to see me?

(p.s. - Very nice Krag).
