A number of Norwegian Krags were rebuilt in the 1960s in Austria for Globe in Ottowa. The .308WCF I owned for a while had a 22" Boehler steel barrel marked "Made in Austria" and "Globe Firearms Ltd. Ottowa Canada". Austrian proofmarks. Sporter stock with pistol grip, Monte Carlo cheekpiece, uncheckered, apppeared to be light colored walnut. Arsenal stamp and issue serial number ground off the receiver during rebuild. In my opinion the .308 is too hot for the Krag so I disposed of the rifle, warning the buyer in writing. I thought of setting the barrel back and rechambering to .300 Savage but decided not to bother.
