My pictures are not good but better than my computer skill.
Here is Krag One; Maple stocked front swivel mag cover in 25 Krag Imp. Unknown maker. I think it holds 3 shots.
Krag Two is by Niedner in 22Niedner Mag Rimmed. Note double set triggers. Sadly in remodeled military stock probably done by Shelhamer. (He probably held his breath when he did this. This is a single shot.
Krag Three Niedner repeater in 25 Krag. Real nice rifle.

Now to see if I can get pictures up.

WOW, really like that last rifle. Thanks for posting.

John

The last rifle looks like the one Jim Waldron owned, offered it to me at the Tulsa show perhaps a decade ago. A most elegant deer rifle. His price was high, I had just begun to collect Krag sporters, it was a wildcat, and I had just bought a mint Shelhamer Neidner Krag in .30-40, so I declined to buy. A mistake !!

I do think it came originally from Jim Waldron. I know he liked going to the show in Tulsa and his safe was full of results of his trips. He has passed now and I have wondered whatever happened to his guns.

VERY nice Krag rifle!
Would it be possible to see a stock length view of the cheekpiece side?
Thanks, Steve

Here is the other side view. Shelhamer invisible cheekpiece..


Here is a Shelhamer cheekpiece

Thanks g,
The Krag has wonderful lines, and we can leave that cheekpiece invisible! I'll be starting a Krag sporter sometime in the future.

One that's not invisible ;-),

Gary, a question. If you have a fired case from the Niedner .25-Krag that has not be resized could you measure the case mouth diameter for me?

Hi Mike I don't have any right now. Soon as the weather breaks I will try to get one.
