Started as a Lux. Replaced barrel with Scout barrel and got a killer deal on this scope, so here we are…
Dang half husky, can’t keep the car clean at all. It’s just a 3-15x but it’s huge. Need to add a cheek riser now.Looks like you put the Hubble telescope on it. I see the dogs rule your car.
That looks great! I couldn’t decide if I wanted to remove the rear sight but ultimately decided to leave it in place.As opposed to taking a Scout and dropping it in a Trainer stock to make a full sized stock with short threaded barrel...

The Tinker Toy approach to rifles is alive and well here at RFC
At the moment it’s definitely in chin weld territory haha.That is just that, cheek riser. I hate that they make a stock that was intended for open sights and not a scope. I have 2 Lux rifles, and both needed cheek risers
She’s a beautiful stubby ******* haha!Nah... it's perfect... the reincarnation of the TOU Tanker model... or Stubby as I think he called it.![]()
Never seen a Krag with a scope.I thought your scope needed to be a ler or ier and mounted on the barrel to make a scout? Your rifle should be handy. View attachment 312302
Haha it’s a 457 scout barrel. Short and threaded for future suppression.I thought your scope needed to be a ler or ier and mounted on the barrel to make a scout? Your rifle should be handy. View attachment 312302
So cool.It was an 1898 rifle until bubba cut it down. In my ignorance I bought it. After discovering it wasn’t a carbine I cut it a little more recrowned the muzzle and bought the long Kraghaus scope base. Had a gunsmith d&t it for a 3rd hole. A good shooter. Added the pad too. A fast rig, when I shoulder it my eye is dead behind the scope. Krags are cool. I also have a correct 1899 Constabulary/School Rifle, a correct 1896 rifle and an 1896 carbine that is correct except for the rear non carbine sight.
Me like as well. Nothing wrong with good glass. Use the best you can afford and never look back. Whot kind of reticle? Whot kind of can are you getting for it, or are you? And how does it shoot for you presently? Nice looking rifle!Looks like you put the Hubble telescope on it. I see the dogs rule your car.
EBR-4 SFP reticle. A bit busy but a good chunk of info for longer shots. I have a dead air mask sitting in jail currently. It shoots great! Nice little groups at 25 yds. I’ll get some pics of the target next time.Me like as well. Nothing wrong with good glass. Use the best you can afford and never look back. Whot kind of reticle?
