BidProwl Summary
This is a sporterized 1894-1945 Norwegian Krag bolt action rifle, re-barreled to .308 Win with a 22-inch commercial barrel, showing good bore with light fouling and mixed blued finish condition from light surface rust freckling to edge wear. Collectors and vintage rifle enthusiasts buy these conversions for shooting and accumulation, though Globe Firearms sporters have decent followings among Krag aficionados. Verify the receiver's structural integrity since markings were removed, confirm that commercial .308 barrel is properly headspaced and seated for the original Krag action, and have a gunsmith evaluate pressure handling before firing given the 50-60 ksi versus 40 ksi caliber pressure difference.

Description from HiBid
R Serial # NSN. .308 Win. caliber bolt action rifle with a 22” barrel. The bore is excellent, mostly glean with strong rifling with some light fouling. Globe Firearms in Ottawa Canada offered sporterized rifles in the 1950’s -1960’s. The rifle was originally a Norwegian military Krag rifle that has been re-barreled with a commercial barrel marked “Special Boehler Steel”. The receiver has been scrubbed of its markings. The blued metal finish on the barrel is in good to very good condition showing light edge wear with thinning, scuffs and scratches along with some scattered spots of light surface rust. The blued metal finish on the receiver, magazine assembly and trigger guard shows edge wear and thinning with scratches and scattered light surface rust freckling. Ramp/bead front sight with a flip-down rear sight. The plain walnut sporter stock is in very good condition showing scattered scratches and sanding marks. Deteriorating red rubber recoil pad. The action works fine. Caution is advised if shooting…. .308 Win. operates at much greater pressures than .30-40 Krag (50-60 ksi vs. 40 ksi for the Krag). Norwegian Krags were made between 1894 and 1945. C&R.
