	This US Krag is referenced in 1895 correspondence between Ft Douglas, UT and SA.

	Mallory lists #2737 as issued 04/25/1895 to Co. D, 16th U.S. Infantry. Significance of this model 1892 rifle?

	Bruce Canfield references "2737" and "3029" in 1895 correspondence as being returned to SA from D Company, Ft Douglas, UT for defective cocking pieces due to soft steel. Man at Arms Mag, Oct 1998. "3029" has been located. It would be cool to locate "2737" Thanks Curt
