Item No.: 10278 Price : SOLD
Item : ANTIQUE US MODEL 1898 KRAG RIFLE, CONVERTED TO CARBINE, .30-40 KRAG
Description :
This is an antique US Model 1898 Krag Carbine manufactured prior to 1898 and chambered for the .30-40 Government cartridge. In actuality it is a rifle that has been altered to a carbine configuration. It most closely resembles the Model 1899 carbine as there is no sling ring or bar. Whoever did the conversion did an excellent job, as the gun appears to have not been modified. It is in very fine condition with 90-95% of its blued finish remaining. There is some scuffing on he bottom of the barrel and a few small pits on the sides of the barrel in a line along the edge of the old barrel channel. The bolt remains armory bright. The gun has excellent mechanics and an excellent bore. The stock is very fine with a good "P" firing proof behind the trigger guard. The gun is fitted with a very fine Kerr "No Buckl" sling. The hardware does appear to have been buffed. This is a great looking, well done Krag carbine. Stock no. 29917
