This 1896 Springfield Krag is a quite a unique specimen. It's externally and internally immaculate with a fantastic bore. The cartouches on the stock are legible and unworn as pictured. NRA Antique Fine/Excellent condition with original finish and bluing. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves, rather than write paragraphs of hyperbole. It came from the same small collection of 5 guns I purchased about ten years ago. Every one of them had been cleaned and unfired since at least 1960, as far back as the living descendants can remember the guns.

$3000 plus shipping to your FFL if required in your State. If your State has no specific regulations for antique pre-1899 firearms, it can go directly to your door. You attest that you are able to own firearms in your State. No sales to CA, DC, Alaska, Hawaii, or any other place that will make shipping this a nightmare.

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.

I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).

Very interested.

Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?


I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
