** SOLD ** U.S. Springfield 1898 Krag Bolt Action Rifle in 30-40 Krag Caliber **Sporterized - Nicely Done**
Description: Here we have a nicely sporterized Springfield U.S. Krag rifle in .30-40 Krag caliber. Here we have a Springfield Model 1898 Krag bolt action carbine chambered in .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 and famously served as the longarm during the Spanish–American War. 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. This particular example has been nicely sporterized at some point. The barrel has been shortened to 22", new front sight added and a very nice sporter stock with contrasting forend have been added. It has been made into a nice nimble little rifle. The receiver is "US" marked. The bore is good with strong rifling.
