My grandfathers Krag.
16/07/12 02:03 AM

Hello all.

I got my Grandfathers Krag today. Oh, great.

It is a matching numer one, even the butt plate. Great!
Oh yes, the trap door was opened and inside was the original cleaning kit, guess unused to

Thanks grandfather.

The gun was used by him from the WWII and up to the late 50`s for moose and rein deer hunting in Norway.
I have no information about if he used it during the war. Maybe.

The gun is made in 1901, serial number is: 51885. Any information on the gun is welcome.

I also got a action only, also owned by him, made in 1904.
These one I am planing to have re-builed back to its original look and take it out to the range and also for rein deer hunting. That will be very nice. But, was the Krag ever issued with a scope?

The butt plate:

The cleaning kit:

Thanks all for looking.

Cheers all, Vegard_dino
