Sounds like a cut down rifle to me...rifle's 30" and carbine is 22"...I'm pretty sure. Maybe there was a ring at the muzzle, or someone's ham handed attempt to re-crown it. But to front of the action? Try a rod down the barrel with the bolt closed. Measure the rod, you may have the whole barrel there.
with bolt closed an rod down barrell its 30 inches on the dot
Then a rifle barrel...I can't see your pics. My computer won't allow them to open. You know stocks can be had right?
yes i would like ot put orginal stock back on this krag an others i have found. an so far none of the stocks i got with this estate are full lenght
You'll probably have to hunt one out. Either an original, which can be pricy or... Boyds: US KRAG 1896 RIFLE STOCK WALNUT (SEMI-INLET) Field Designs
thanks for that info asi think most of the stocks out of this estate are not complete. still working on going thru all this stuff
Oh, then it's a full length rifle barrel, 30" measured from muzzle to boltface. See, told you it was a rifle! LOL!
well i am learning alot for you guys thanks alot
So, now there's one more to rebuild. Or, sell it and let someone else re do it.
well yes some will be sold to futher pay for both a rebuild on one i want an to pay for the clean up of the gunsmith estate as i did the hauling for free an only charged them for my guys labor cost i think i got paid from what i am finding in everything they said was scrap an junk trash. i have sold enough on ebay an gunbroker to be even with my gas an truck expenses. so all i find now is my profit. this was my last major side job before i got hurt an had to close business down for now.
