Rare Springfield M1899 Krag Carbine - Philippine Constabulary Rifle
Description: Beginning in 1906, a number of 1899 Krag Carbines, along with a few 1898 Carbines, were altered for Philippine Constabulary use by fitting them with cut-down 1898 Krag rifle stocks equipped with sling swivels and bayonet lugs. The ends of the larger diameter carbine barrels were turned down with a lathe in order to permit the use of the standard bayonet. These modified Krag Carbines resembled miniature Krag rifles. These Philippine Converted Krags known today as Philippine Constabulary Rifles. This one has lost virtually all of its finish with spotty oxidation throughout. Overall, the wood furniture is in nice condition with no major damage but minor bruising throughout. Faint cartouches on the left side of the stock. The color of the upper handguard is different from the rest of the stock. The rifling in the bore is slightly worn with light pin-pricking throughout. Comes with a nice leather sling.
