I see you like the grooved handguards also, here's a pic of my Ennies to include a rescued LB above the JC. Bubba hacked it up but left the metal alone, I was able to bring it back to proper form with LB and Savage parts.

I love the k98, but I like the #4mk1* better
For the 10 rd.mag and the better sights.

its been a while since ive thought of this thread , i miss my US Krags - thos were bolt actions that were smooth as butter , i had a 92/4 , a 94 and a 99 carbine at one time as well as the spanish M83 mauser they faced in the spanam war , different times and i did enjoy learning of them , they have been gone so long now i cant find all the data i know i have on them ,

i do see some of my photobucket photos are still showing up in these old threads that are getting brought back to life
