Yes I get that its a cool rifle but was just struggling getting to what is actually is since I don't have a huge knowledge of old rifles. Thanks fellas, I knew you would quickly come thru!
No, its not for sale to anyone but my wife. And if she doesn't want it, I'll be taking it lol

so what I'm gathering here is that this is a pretty cool rifle with some monetary value to it...sweet
I'll give you $35 and teach you the song of my people. Good trade. You know you want to do this.

Very tempting but no. I'm now guessing that out there somewhere is a man that is extremely unhappy about this situation. We are getting it from a distant relative that needs cash and just got done with a divorce. My wife came up as a possible buyer and we were asked what we would pay for it. Working on the terms now. I have an idea from gun broker and other sites but anyone here have a legit idea? We are going to pay her whatever it is worth. We don't have the serial number yet but it appears to be post 1907 due to the patent mark in the photo and due to the mass production of them in 1915 and 1916 my money would it being one of those two years. There also is I see a few later versions post 1932 that were produced but I don't think its one of those.
I wonder if her ex knows that she has the rifle?

Most of the 30-40 krags I’ve seen have had the barrel cut down significantly. That’s cool that yours looks intact. Nice rifle.

Super cool. I’ve heard those aren’t very pleasant to shoot, though. Something about the shape of the stock & comb makes them pretty punishing on the shoulder and face.

Serial is 73k. Puts it at early 1915 manufacture, first year they mass produced them

Pay Ben no mind. I'll give you $47.23 AND one gamebag I forgot to wash.
This is top shelf medical waste. it's from a clinic in Beverly Hills. There's some of Charlie Sheen in it!
