With the Lyman receiver sight, it would make an awesome little woods carbine. I believe I also have a box of Remington 30-40 Krag ammunition I'll add in to get you started. $895 + $25 shipping

About 35 years ago I had a mannlicher-stocked Krag that VT 'smith Wilbur Hauck stamp with his name and address, so I assume that he put it together. Somebody had put a G&H side-mount on it before I bought it and with the scope installed, offset to the left, it didn't balance/handle nearly as well as it did when the scope and top half of the mount was removed.

It was on Gun Broker, and it sold for under $1,000. After 20 years, I still kick myself for passing on that one.
