    Benicia Arsenal is believed to have altered over 11,000 Kragicon rifles into carbine length rifles for NRA members, during the 1920s.

    Many more Krag rifles were 'cut-down' to carbine length by civilian owners and dealers.

    Official correspondence is rare and is seldom still connected to actual arsenal 'altered' DCM guns.
