Krag Rifle Forearm?

butlersrangers and Parashooter,
Thanks for the replies. Sad to hear about Mr. Schwartz.
Parashooter I liked your comment: "The project is time-consuming. I recall it took most of a day."

Will wonders never cease!!! Was contacted via PM by a gentleman who had a 1902 hand guard that was surplus to his needs. He offered it to me. Of course I took him up on his most gracious offer. The hand guard arrived on Friday. By noon, I was out of the office. By 2 PM I had gotten home. Just before supper on Friday afternoon ... finished the Krag! It really is a pretty thing. Have some pictures on my phone. Now ... how to get them posted. Sincerely. bruce.
