KRAG JORGENSEN
The Krag rifle was developed in Norway and first adopted by Denmark. It was standard issue in some form through WWII. For a list of U.S. models and prices see United States, Rifles, Krag Jorgensen. For those collectors who are interested in the Danish Krags, the only major difference, other than caliber, lies in the operation of the loading gate. Prices listed below are for unaltered Danish Krags. The forerunner of the U.S. Krags was the Model 1889 rifle.
NOTE: All Danish Krags are chambered for the 8x58Rmm cartridge.
Danish Model 1889
This rifle was developed by Ole Krag and Eric Jorgensen. It used a single forward bolt locking lug plus a bolt guide rib. Chambered for the 8x58Rmm cartridge, the rifle was fitted with a 33" barrel with full stock and no pistol grip. The barrel is fitted with a full-length metal handguard. A flush loose-loaded box magazine was used. The bolt handle was straight. There were a number of different carbine versions but all of these were full stocked and fitted with 23.5" barrel with bayonet lugs on all but one variation: the artillery carbine (see below). These guns are marked prior to 1910 “GEVAERFABRIKEN KJOBENHAVN” [date] over “M89” on the left side of the receiver. Approximately 140,000 of these rifles and carbines were manufactured prior to 1930. During the German occupation in WWII, the Germans reintroduced the rifle for its own use.

Checkered hard rubber grips. 9.1" single egde blade. Steel tipped leather scabbard. Example shown is marked on ricasso “Alex Coppel Solingen.” Price range 175 – 100.
