Vintage U.S. Model 1898 Springfield Armory Krag-Jorgensen .30-40 in VERY GOOD Condition
Description: Here we present a very nice vintage U.S. Springfield Armory Model 1898, also known as the Krag-Jorgensen rifle, chambered in .30 Army (.30-40 Krag). Around 500,000 of these rifles were produced by Springfield Armory in Massachusetts from 1894-1904 and used by the U.S. miltary in numerous conflicts including the Spanish-American War and the Phillipine-American War. This fine example of U.S. military history was produced in 1898 and is in Very Good condition for its age. The 30" barrel has a very nice shiny bore with strong rifling and no signs of any pitting. The wood is in great shape as well, showing a few light dings and mild abrasions, and has a beautiful tiger stripe pattern in the grain. The finish on the receiver and barrel bands shows wear consistent with the age of the rifle with some spots of dark gray patina, but the barrel retains about 90% of its original finish. The action on this rifle is incredibly smooth and everything functions as it should. All original proofs and markings remain strong and clear. This is by far the nicest "Krag" I have ever come across, and it goes without saying that this would make an excellent addition to any collection. Feel free to call or text with any questions or for more pictures. Price: $1,700.00 Buy Now Curio/Relic: Yes Rifle Caliber: .30-40 Krag Contact Seller |
