I have a Bannerman 1896 Krag with a pistol grip stock. The stock originally had finger groves on the fore-end, but it is a one-piece stock. The stock was apparently made specifically for the converted Krag rifle. It is most decidedly not a high-end piece. It has a WW1-surplus Springfield barrel cut off at the breech and re-chambered for the 30-40 cartridge. The reamer for the Krag chamber did not enter the barrel in proper alignment, because one side of the chamber wall is not quite right. In spite of all that, the rifle is reasonably accurate and functions very well as a hunting rifle.
