	To start with... probably Joe Poyer's "The American Krag Rifle and Carbine". Full of information, readily available and at an inexpensive cost.

	I wish I would have known about this earlier. I was looking for a sling for my trapdoor and had seen this sling. (You need to *Login* to view media files and links) Passed on it because it didn’t look correct to me. Looking at it again, I think it was an engineer Krag sling that sold for $66.

	Finally had a chance to take her out to the range. She shoots very well, but the 220 military loads shoot stronger than I expected. The last Krag Carbine I shot was my buddies and he shoots 170(?) with a target load. I also was lucky enough to find and buy a very nice 1903 Rock Island Arsenal engineer sling to finish her off. Great look to me. I want to thank everyone for their comments and suggestions regarding my first Krag. I'ts as much a joy to shoot as it is to look at. Very cool little guns. Mike

	You mind if I add your rifle to the KCA serial number database?
