Norwegian Krag Reminder

I have one of these Krags in the shop for a barrel setback. I modified a Numrich Krag action wrench to fit it. The front ring is larger and the recess for a drive dog is smaller than the U.S. Krag. The big thing, though, is that the Norwegian Krag has LEFT HAND THREADS on the barrel. Doh! Fortunately I didn't break anything before I tried turning the wrench the other way.

Thanks for that Clemson. Never had to work on a Krag but that is good to know.

Try to look unimportant. Your enemy might be low on ammo.
