Andi/Madsen & list:

FWIW I had an 1896 Kragicon for years which I believe to have been an original carbine, SN 31224, no cutout for saddle ring, late model sights and sling swivels. Those Krags got modded pretty good by the arsenal, something that I believe rather than detracting from their value, gives them some soul. If only they could talk!

I sold that carbine to Ron Peterson in ALbq, back in 1992, for $300. I wish I had it back!
