| Seeking an 1896 30-40 Krag Carbine stock
Anyone know where I can find an original, (or a good replica) 1896 carbine stock with all the parts? I bought my U.S. Springfield Armory Model 1896 about 11 years ago from my ex wife's grandfather for $150. It's in original condition, except for a "sporterized" homemade stock. Fit & function are excellent, & it's a great shooter with mild reloads. Still one of my favorite rifles to take out to the range. I'd like to find an original style stock for it just so it's as close to original looking as possible. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks. |

I've got one. It's a cut down '96 rifle stock. The barrel band is held in place with a brass rod abt. 3/32. I was going to fix it, found another stock, It was a '98 carbine stock modified to '96 configuration. So it's in the basement collecting dust. you can Email me EGREGG@HUGHES.NET if interested Last edited by Jersey Jailer; 05-08-2008 at 10:49 PM. Reason: incomplete |

I was searching for an 1896 30-40 Kriag Carbine Stock when I stumbled onto your forum. I found a site called macongunstocks.net that sells decent looking stocks. Does anyone have any experience with them, or can anyone see any obvious flaws in their stocks? I hope to become a regular to your site. Thanks |

| Krag Stock
I sold an 1899 carbine stock to a guy on ebay last week. He is up in IL and I still have his address. Not sure if he deals in them but if someone seriously wants one I will email him and ask. The one I sold him included the butt plate, very clear cartouche etc. and went for $400. Wish I could have sold the entire carbine on there to keep it together but rules are rules. Now to get rid of the rest of it.  |

If you have a Krag carbine barrel from this gun in reasonable good shape, with or without sights, I would like to hear from you. Mark
