The BATFE uses M1898 s/n 152669 as the last of the "antique" Krags. Yours is much higher than that and is, indeed, a 'firearm'. Here, in New Jersey, any cartridge long gun for which ammo is commercially available is a 'firearm' no matter when made. That includes all .30-40 Krags and .45-70 Springfields.![]()
