Description:
VERY EARLY U.S. 1892/1896 KRAG RIFLE, #8XXX, MADE 1895. This is one of the lowest numbers I've seen. These started out as "rod-bayonet" rifles and were soon recalled to have the rods removed and the stocks either replaced or the rod channel filled along with Model 1896 sights etc. This one has the 1896 sight and a non-rod channel filled stock. Overall fine condition with good even aged barrel blue showing only light thinning. Uncleaned gray receiver (as it should be), fine wood showing only normal light handling and no cracks (one small sliver/chip replaced on the upper edge of the forend by the front bayonet lug). Tight action with generally excellent bore showing strong rifling all the way through. It would be hard to find an earlier Krag and this is a nice one.
