Buttstock and handguards show very good, with only light scuffing and bruising and a very crisp 1898 dated cartouche and circle P. Buttplate shows approx 75% of orig finish with a nickel oiler in the buttstock. Mechanics are crisp with the bore being somewhat bright, showing minimal wear. This rifle shows, overall, to be a very fine example of a ’98 Krag with the Parkhurst/Zalinski indexing attachment. 4-38207 (6,500-9,500)
