I am sorry but I do not have any spare parts. My one Krag is a '98. Have you checked the Krag Collectors Association forum? A lot of those guys have parts.

I will do so. Thank you!

At one point I carried one of these... :shock: 9B56DE74-8029-452D-AFCF-D615CBD700E4.jpeg Hey ...It was the only centerfire handgun I had and I was working nights in pharmacies in bad neighborhoods.... !

Happy belated b-day!

Happy belated birthday!

BTW, based on your name, you may be able to give me some advise. I own a 1896 Krag carbine that was sporterized. Trying to restore it and need to find a rear sight. You wouldn't have a spare you'd be willing to part with would you?

I have often wondered why Hollywood often ignores real history and prefers fiction that is not nearly as interesting.

Because Hollyweird is made up of crap-for-brains leftists worms... but you knew that!

Well said Paul!

I hope this thread becomes a source of inspiration to us all, and especially for the younger members here. I am truly afraid of where our society is going...

Happy belated birthday!

Living in SC and loving it. Sounds right to me!

I only hope that Ruger gets it right . .
If Ruger does it, it will be right.

Paul, thanks for the history of the site. Even for us old hands, it is nice to get the backstory.

And thank you for starting this thread. I am really looking forward to it growing!!!

Thank you sir!

I did check out the reproduction saddle ring. I may end up going with that if push comes to shove. Unfortunately, the rear sight and forend handguard are both out of stock.

Hi Fellas - I purchased a 1896 Krag carbine about 20 years ago. It had been "slightly sporterized", but it was a great deal and I thought it would make a good project gun to restore to its original configuration. It is butter smooth (like all the Krag's) and shoots nicely. The stock is "original-ish...

Happy belated b-day!

I saw the post on the USPS.

Hopefully it comes FedEx!

Just saw in another post that your birthday was Tuesday 13 July. Happy belated b-day!!!

Hope you got that bullpup!

I have a few flinters. Wish I could spend more time with them. Maybe in a few years.

I've always wanted to make a killdeer rifle. That would be a fun project in retirement!

I find old friends to be The Most Valuable additions to my life.

Very wise words Jim!

Sounds like a workable plan!

Just saw this. I am so sorry for your losses. Prayers up indeed!

Happy belated b-day! What did your Dad get you?

Looking forward to the updates and pictures. I wish I'd taken a before picture of my Bowen before it was worked over.

When you're all done, you might be almost as cool as me.

Holy Smokes is that gorgeous!!!

Welcome to the fire!

Stunning!

You know I try to "walk a mile in a man's shoes" as they used to say.....to me that means to endeavour to see things from others perspectives.....I try and try and try until my brain hurts. All I see is folk who are either embarrassed at our (U.S.A.) great history and heritage or actually hate this...

I don't know if anyone will particularly care or be interested in this but I was recently asked by a forum member what I'd been doing since I stepped back quite a bit from my moderator duties. Well, here it is... 116th Infantry Regiment Roll of Honor is the result of what is euphemistically referre...

Happy belated birthday fellas!!!

Ian's videos are so informative!

Is Mingo hunting with you? Or Chingachkook?
Neither, I'd prefer Sacagawea a lot more useful in more ways than one...

Happy belated birthday fellas!

Pretty much a perfect summary of today!

Very cool!

I have to share that (or try it). If you never hear from me again, have the police check my shovels for traces of fresh dirt.

Thanks all. It has been a good day. And I did shoot something.

Good choice!

Happy belated birthdays!

Happy Birthday fellas!

Congrats Kirk! Looking forward to the range report.

I'm with you on the busy; it gets worse every year!

SPOT ON!!!

RIP.

The propaganda trying to shove the vaccine down everyone's throat really means there is more to it than just preventing or minimizing COVID-19. They are priming the population for more rights being destroyed...

Happy Birthday Gary! Hope the weather is nice and you are enjoying it - maybe with some shooting!

I think Taking Chance is a movie everyone should watch. If you aren't familiar, Chance is a KIA , its the story of his return to his home town. Its a tear jerker! LEST WE FORGET! My wife and I watched it tonight. It was very moving. There must have been a lot of dust in our room. Eyes got wet sever...

Joe -

Just saw this. I am sorry for your loss!
