I don't think that's a real 03 front sight on my Krag. At least it doesn't look like the one on my 03A3. Perhaps the older 1903 had a different sight. I know that if I do keep the front sight that's...
I think you're probably correct about being sweated or press fitted. My concern is more about the condition of the barrel finish under the band, but mainly about what I put on there to replace the...
I'm still trying to decide what to do with the front sight. I'm just afraid of what's under that band and opening up a can of worms. I also still need to do something about a handguard spring clip...
The bore is almost pristine.
Even though some said "It's a nice sporter, leave it alone." a sporter wasn't what I wanted. I picked this sporter up gun up few weeks a go and after a few prayers went to work. I removed the rubber...
I spent a couple of hours on Saturday modifying the repro 1898 handguard into a carbine handguard that will accept a 1902 rear sight. It's actually coming along better than I thought so far. I...
I've been looking online for the spring clips, but have had zero luck finding any. I wish I had a handguard that had one, so I can see what they're supposed to look like and how thick they are. I...
Yeah, I made them too small. I was afraid they'd be larger than the size allowed by the forum. I may repost them.
Your handguard looks great. To make the one I have into a carbine guard I'll...
The one that came in the mail today must have bee made for an M03 because it is a little shorter and a little narrower. I was really disappointed at first, but it only cost $25, so I decided to fool...
I have a butt plate on order from Numerich. They only had one style available and I think it might be the flat plate that came on the 1892. I couldn't tell from the photo. Actually, I think it might...
The Krag FINALLY came in the mail today. It's in, what I think is, an actual 1896 saddle ring carbine stock. The receiver has the serial number 80266, which from what I gather means it should be an...
I'm finally getting around to buying my first Krag. It has been on my "want" list for quite awhile. The one I'm getting, according to what I've been told, is a cut rifle in a saddle carbine stock....
