It began life as a rifle, that serial number is way too high for an 1898 carbine

Tom,

An 1898 that started life with that S/N was definitely a rifle. If it has a good barrel, take it hunting and don't worry about damaging it.

Good luck!

Don't sweat it.... There are a lot of " Fraken-Krags" out there. We love them all!
