A Pittance

For a mere $350 the local pawn shop has a Bubbafied Krag-Jørgensen.

It's one that was done with care by a competent gunsmith and I would dearly love to compare it to Willard's M1898 rifle.

Alas, with so many other irons in the fire, I lack the critical funding to make such a comparison.

Generous contributions by loyal readers could make this happen!  Perhaps even get a box of the ever elusive .30-40 to do a firing comparison!

    Did I ever get to show you my Krag carbine?

      You did. And I didn't properly appreciate it at the time.

    I'll post a pic of the one we have in the shop for you to drool over.

    We even have Cor Lokt .30-40 Gov't on the shelf!
