Description: Springfield Armory Model 1898 .30-40 Krag. The Springfield Model 1892–99 Krag–Jørgensen rifle is a Norwegian-designed bolt-action rifle that was adopted in 1892 as the standard United States Army military longarm, chambered for U.S. caliber .30-40 Krag cartridges. All versions and variants were manufactured under license by the Springfield Armory between 1892 and 1903. Although "Krags" were popular, unique and efficient, the side loading gate mechanism was slow and cumbersome to reload in combat compared to the clip loaded Spanish Mausers the Krag was up against. Thus, the U.S. Krag was replaced beginning in 1903 with the introduction of the M1903 Springfield rifle, which was essentially a copy of a Mauser, although some design elements of the Krag remained, such as the cocking piece. They remain popular with collectors today. This example is still in good shape and would make a nice addition to anyones collection. .30-40 Krag SOLD Metal Condition: good Wood Condition: good Bore Condition: bright Barrels: 29" barrel Stock Dimensions: 13.5 Fore End: smooth wood Butt Pad: metal Weight: 8 lbs 8 oz Sights: V-notch and front post Item Location: La Vista, NE |
