I can not make the alphabet that comes after the serial number.Rifle shows differently under different light as you can see.
![]() AlexanderA Member. The real significance of the serial number on an M1898 Krag is in determining whether it was made before January 1, 1899, and is therefore an antique (and thus unregulated) under federal law. This is one of several guns whose production spanned the cutoff date (the famous 98 Mauser being another one). Any help would be appreciated Thanks Last edited by TOK; at 07:46 PM. ![]() Its not an alphabet, maybe a mark If you take a pic from the side of the barrel where it has the serial number, maybe Ill be able to read it there. ![]() Looks like a nice gun, do you mind me asking what you paid for it Thanks torke khar, appreciate you taking the time to walk me through this I will PM you what I paid. To me this 9822 has a far more solid feel and better workmanship than any rifle I own, or may ever own, even though I will never ever shoot it. Again, Thank you, and please let me know if I can ever help you out. From what I know the Czech BrnoMauser are built the best in the world. Even better that the German ones, because of its craftsmanship and machinery. The Persian built Brnos, which were set up by the Czechs in Iran, arent nearly as good, clean and precise. The Czech ones. Ive seen the Persian 98s go as low as 600 to about 900 if in excellent condition and all matching s. If you have matching Bayonet then you can add a couple of hundred to the price.

I suggest firing non-corrosive ammo to be on the safe side, to take care at the range and while cleaning it not to mar the finish. I dont see any reason why shooting it would decrease the value.
