Are you looking for a Krag Jorgensen, specifically the Springfield Model 1892,1894, or even 1899? Yep, they are getting hard to find, in the full length form. And if you do find them, they are pretty expensive. In this video, I search around for a cheap antique Krag.

It was the only Norwegian design adopted by the U.S. military and only ended up in service for about 14 years. The Springfield Model 189299 was praised for its smooth design and reliability. The problem was that it wasn’t as good as the Mauser 1893 in combat. The Mauser could be loaded with stripper clips much faster and the dynamics of the 7mm Mauser was superior to the 3040 Krag. One thing is for sure though, the Krag is as smooth as butter

The KragJørgensen, also known as the Krag, was the standard United States Army service rifle in the late 19th century. The Krag was designed by the Norwegian military officer, Ole Herman Johannes Krag and Erik Jørgensen, a Danish.

Despite its many advancements, the Krag was eventually replaced by the Springfield Model 1903. However, it remains an important part of American military history and a significant example of the evolution of weapons technology.
