You know, as a lad I can remember literally tripping over those 'things' in gun shops.

Nice rifle. I've wanted a Kraig for years but haven't found one yet that was priced right and clean.

Sporterized, or original carbine? The Krag was an interesting, and well made rifle.

Patrick,
It's a cut up infantry rifle. They are very interesting. And slick as a gut! While I was at the shop I could cherry pick. If it had a good bore it generally went home with me. Love em!!!

Some very slick actions, but I can't stomach the magazine.

Bob, like we were talking about Sunday morning before everyone had to leave for home. It would be a fun time to have some sort of military rifle match at Roosevelt, and again at Armijo Springs next year.

Would a bubba'ed 1917 Eddystone qualify? Ed
