Krag Flush Loading Gate Conversion

**rcathey** · 07-22-2020 03:37 PM

I've had this type of rifle on my radar for a while and finally ran across a cheapie on GunBroker. Looks pretty nicely done.

Can't wait to get it in. I'm thinking a nicer stock, maybe a banded Redfield or Lyman front sight, and I have a Rice peep sight I can put on it. Should be a slick little rifle!
(PM me if you have a nice looking stock!)

I've attached some pics from the listing. Anyone else have one like this? Would love to see yours too!

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

I saw some photos of some custom Krags from the 1930's, some had new stocks that
covered the loading gate area. Magazine held two rounds plus one in chamber while
some were single shot in 219 Zipper or 22-3000 R2
