ad closed SOLD - 1898 Krag Jorgensen Sporter - .30-40 Krag

[noid]

Selling a 1898 Krag-Jorgensen rifle. Chambered in the venerable .30-40 Krag cartridge.

Someone sporterized it at some point, but did a fine job of things. The rear leaf sight was removed and a Lyman peep sight was added at the rear of the receiver. The old sling swivel was also removed and patched quite nicely. The rifling is still strong and will be even stronger after a good cleaning (there's a fair amount of copper fouling in the grooves).  Most importantly, though, is that the action has that smooth-as-butter feel that the Krags are well known for. 

The rifle is light weight and well balanced for what it is. This would make a heck of a deer gun

Asking 450. Would consider trades for .32ACP pistols. I'd also consider SxS or O/U shotguns in 12ga. Show me what you got

F2F meetup in Goodlettsville, Hendersonville, White House, Gallatin, or Portland. Any further out and y'all will have to come my way

 Safety Reminder for Buyers and Sellers 

This is an automatic reply meant to protect you as a buyer and a seller on TGO.

• Use the Buyer/Seller Feedback feature to research who you are dealing with.   Please come back and leave feedback for each other after the transaction is complete.  Your experience will help others.
   
• Never agree to use an electronic form of payment to buy or sell a gun!  None of the electronic payment services will protect you against fraud in a firearms transaction.  They all have terms of service FORBIDDING the use of their services to buy/sell guns.  DON'T DO IT.
   
• Be very wary of anyone who insists on brokering a deal in private or outside of TGO.  Scammers almost always prefer to operate out of the public eye.
