The sling mounts and front sight is a giveaway on these. There are 100 cut-down rifles for every genuine carbine, and I've not seen a single dealer admit to it, either, except one, who said 'this has a rifle sight on it', which to him apparently passed for honest disclosure.

$300 is still a good price for a good antique. The action is slick and fast on the Krag, nothing wrong with it. The troops liked the idea of being able to 'top up' the magazine without removing it or opening the bolt.
