Offered here is a classic U.S. Springfield Model 1898 Krag-Jørgensen, one of the most elegant and historically significant military rifles ever adopted by the United States Army. Chambered in .30-40 Krag, the Model 1898 served American troops during the Spanish-American War, the Philippine-American War, and the years leading into the 20th century.
This rifle is highlighted by a 1902 Springfield Armory inspection cartouche, reflecting its continued military service and inspection after its original manufacture. Adding to its military character is the "27" stamped into the buttplate tang, believed to be a rack or unit inventory number from its period of service. The Krag's unique side-loading rotary magazine and exceptionally smooth bolt action remain hallmarks of its innovative design and continue to impress collectors and shooters alike.
With its desirable military configuration, matching period features, and documented 1902 inspection mark, this Springfield Model 1898 is an outstanding addition to any U.S. military firearms collection. Whether displayed alongside other Spanish-American War artifacts or taken to the range with period-correct ammunition, this Krag represents an important chapter in American martial history and the exceptional craftsmanship of the famed Springfield Armory.
