This rifle has a machined magazine door which is quite elegant. I have guessed that this preceded the kit offering. There is plenty of provenance paperwork proving the whole rig is Hart.


Would love to see a pic of this rifle if possible mark. I've seen a Krag with the Hart conversion and it was the rather cheap looking stamped affair.
