Found a project

[Kerry49]

I fell in love with the 1898 Krag I posted a few weeks ago, so went looking for another. Found what I will describe as a work in progress. An 1898 Krag with a 1901 sight and a cut and cracked stock. But the bore is shootable and its an antique (I think). Got it cleaned up and looks like I will need a couple of rear sight parts and a representative stock+metal parts to get it back to correct configuration. The rear sight needs a rear screw for the base and the binding screw for the slide. Welcome any thoughts or suggestions on how to proceed. Remember I am a Krag novice.
