I just got a nice old 1899 Krag #4875xx, it of course has been "sporterized" with a beautifully grafted on pistol grip (!) and a Weaver side mount with a nice old K-2.5x with post.The gun is in great shape , nice original finish and the 'sporterising' work nicely done on a very clean carbine stock. It has the original front sight but no rear sight. It also is missing the magazine cut off rod thingie with a thumblever on end and a retainer pin. I found a type 4 mag cut off on the internet cheap enough , problem is I found in my internet search an old Pacifac Gunsight rear peep that looks like it has a rod that matches the missing cut off on my gun! Am I halucinating or does this rear sight go in the mag cut off hole? Anybody ever seen something like that? This would solve my rear sight problem, which I was gonna rectify with reinstalling an original rear ladder sight. Help you old Krag experts!
