    Krag Price check

    Not having a decent reference handy, what's the going price on an M1898? I saw one for sale for 800+ in decent condition, neat gun, I would love to own one if cheap enough. That's not cheap enough IMO.

    Disgrace of a nation.

    I know we've all talked the CA school shootings into the ground, but today I noticed something. Everywhere I go from Naval Station to car dealership to city hall, the national ensign is half-masted.
