The Mystery of the Lost Krag Gunsmith
One of the less read Sherlock Holmes novels, to be sure.
This is a little project I've been meaning to do for a while. Had a bit of time so I finally put it together.
You all may recall my fancy Krag sporter. The work is really top notch but unfortunately, it's not named anywhere.
Sedgley and Stoeger come to mind as custom Krag-smiths, so I scoured the web for some pictures of Krags refurbished by them.
By importing these images in AutoCad, I was able to "trace" the stock, scale it, and overlay it to my stock.
The Stoeger Peerless:

And the Sedgley:
Attachment 101912
Neither are quite right though I think the Stoeger would be closer if I could compare it to an actual example rather than this advertisement.
What do you guys think? Any other known 'smiths I should look into?
