No caliber markings on this rifle, a sporterized 1903 it appears to me, indicated caliber is 219 Zipper, but curious re. 1898 mention......r in s. | ||

Gun shops might call it anything close. It could be a flush magazine 98 Krag made into a .219 Zipper. | |||

Dug up serial number range list of both 1898 Krag (my s/n beyond this) and 1903 452XXX s/n produced 1910, so learned something today. | |||

I have a rare, but sporterized 1898 Krag Calvary Carbine... Great rifle.. that would be a neat rifle chambered in a 219 Zipper... or a 22 Short Krag...which could be the same thing also... depending on price.. might be a worthwhile nostalgic investment...
