href="/wiki/Erik_J%C3%B8rgensen_(gunsmith)" title="Erik Jørgensen (gunsmith)">Erik Jørgensen</a> in the late 19th century. It was adopted as a standard arm by Norway, Denmark, and the United States. About 300 were delivered to <a href="/wiki/Boer_commando" title="Boer commando">Boer</a> forces of the <a href="/wiki/South_African_Republic" title="South African Republic">South African Republic</a>. </p><p>A distinctive feature of the Krag–Jørgensen action is its <a href="/wiki/Magazine_(firearms)" title="Magazine (firearms)">magazine</a>. While many other rifles of its era use an integral box magazine loaded by a charger or <a href="/wiki/Stripper_clip" title="Stripper clip">stripper clip</a>, the magazine of the Krag–Jørgensen is integral with the <a href="/wiki/Receiver_(firearms)" title="Receiver (firearms)">receiver</a> (the part of the rifle that houses the operating parts), featuring an opening on the right hand side with a hinged cover. Instead of a charger, single <a href="/wiki/Cartridge_(weaponry)" class="mw-redirect" title="Cartridge (weaponry)">cartridges</a> are inserted through the side opening, and are pushed up, around, and into the action by a spring follower. Later, similar to a charger, a claw type clip would be made for the Krag that allowed the magazine to be loaded all at once, also known as the Krag "speedloader magazine". </p><p>The design presents both advantages and disadvantages compared with a top-loading "box" magazine. Normal loading was one cartridge at a time, and this could be done more easily with a Krag than a rifle with a "box" magazine. In fact, several cartridges can be dumped into the opened magazine of a Krag at once with no need for careful placement, and when shutting the magazine-door the cartridges are forced to line up correctly inside the magazine. The design was also easy to "top off", and unlike most top-loading magazines, the Krag–Jørgensen's magazine could be topped up without opening the rifle's bolt. The Krag–Jørgensen is a popular rifle among <a href="/wiki/Collecting" title="Collecting">collectors</a>, and is valued by shooters for its smooth action. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Early_development">Early development</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Krag%E2%80%93J%C3%B8rgensen&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Early development"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Krag_J%C3%B8rgensen_M1892_as_tested.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/90/Krag_J%C3%B8rgensen_M1892_as_tested.jpg/200px-Krag_J%C3%B8rgensen_M1892_as_tested.jpg" decoding="async" width="200" height="165" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/90/Krag_J%C3%B8rgensen_M1892_as_tested.jpg/300px-Krag_J%C3%B8rgensen_M1892_as_tested.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/90/Krag_J%C3%B8rgensen_M1892_as_tested.jpg/400px-Krag_J%C3%B8rgensen_M1892_as_tested.jpg 2x" data-file-width="2072" data-file-height="1712" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Technical_drawing" title="Technical drawing">Technical drawing</a> of an early Krag–Jørgensen</figcaption></figure> <figure typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Norwegian_K-J_M1912_closeup.png" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/85/Norwegian_K-J_M1912_closeup.png/300px-Norwegian_K-J_M1912_closeup.png" decoding="async" width="300" height="124" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/85/Norwegian_K-J_M1912_closeup.png/450px-Norwegian_K-J_M1912_closeup.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/85/Norwegian_K-J_M1912_closeup.png/600px-Norwegian_K-J_M1912_closeup.png 2x" data-file-width="901" data-file-height="373" /></a><figcaption>Closeup of the Krag–Jørgensen receiver and magazine door on a Norwegian M1912 carbine</figcaption></figure> <p>The 1880s were an interesting period in the development of modern firearms. During this decade <a href="/wiki/Smokeless_powder" title="Smokeless powder">smokeless powder</a> came into general use, and the calibre of various service rifles diminished as new small-bore, high-velocity cartridges using smokeless propellant were developed. Many nations adopted repeating bolt-action rifles using such cartridges during this decade. </p><p>Even though Norway had adopted the repeating <a href="/wiki/Jarmann_M1884" title="Jarmann M1884">Jarmann</a> rifle in 1884, it was soon clear that it was at best an interim weapon. <a href="/wiki/Ole_Krag" class="mw-redirect" title="Ole Krag">Ole Krag</a>, captain in the Norwegian Army and director of <a href="/wiki/Kongsberg_Gruppen" title="Kongsberg Gruppen">Kongsberg Våpenfabrikk</a> (the government weapons factory), therefore continued the development of small arms, as he had since at least 1866. Not satisfied with the tubular magazine of the Jarmann rifle and his earlier <a href="/wiki/Krag%E2%80%93Petersson" title="Krag–Petersson">Krag–Petersson</a> rifle (adopted by the Royal Norwegian Navy in 1876), he enlisted the help of master <a href="/wiki/Gunsmith" title="Gunsmith">gunsmith</a> <a href="/wiki/Erik_J%C3%B8rgensen_(gunsmith)" title="Erik Jørgensen (gunsmith)">Erik Jørgensen</a>. Together they developed the <i>capsule</i> magazine. The principal feature of the capsule magazine was that instead of being a straight box protruding below the stock of the rifle, it wrapped around the bolt action. Early models contained ten rounds and were fitted to modified versions of the Jarmann—though they could be adapted to any bolt-action rifle.<sup id="cite_ref-NMG_2-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-NMG-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <figure class="mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Krag_loading_gate.JPG" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/12/Krag_loading_gate.JPG/300px-Krag_loading_gate.JPG" decoding="async" width="300" height="177" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/12/Krag_loading_gate.JPG/450px-Krag_loading_gate.JPG 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/12/Krag_loading_gate.JPG/600px-Krag_loading_gate.JPG 2x" data-file-width="1634" data-file-height="964" /></a><figcaption>Close-up of an open American 1898 Springfield Krag magazine loading gate</figcaption></figure> <p>In 1886, Denmark was on the verge of adopting a new rifle for its armed forces. One of the early <a href="/wiki/Prototype" title="Prototype">prototypes</a> of the new rifle was sent to Denmark. The feedback given by the Danes was vital in the further development of the weapon. The test performed in Denmark revealed the need to lighten the rifle, as well as the possible benefits of a completely new action. Krag and Jørgensen therefore decided to convert the magazine into what they referred to as a <i>half-capsule</i>, containing only five rounds of ammunition instead of the previous ten.<sup id="cite_ref-NMG_2-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-NMG-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> They also, over the next several months, combined what they considered the best ideas from other gunsmiths with a number of their own ideas to design a distinct bolt action for their rifle. The long extractor, situated on top of the bolt, was inspired by the Jarmann mechanism, while the use of curved surfaces for cocking and ejecting the spent round was probably inspired by the designs from <a href="/wiki/Mauser" title="Mauser">Mauser</a>. For a time after the weapon was adopted by Denmark they experimented with dual frontal locking lugs, but decided against it on grounds of cost and weight. The ammunition of the day did not need dual frontal locking lugs, and the bolt already had three lugs—one in front, one just in front of the bolt handle, and the bolt handle itself—which were considered more than strong enough. </p><p>The rifle had a feature known as a <a href="/wiki/Magazine_(firearms)#Magazine_cut-off" title="Magazine (firearms)">magazine cut-off</a>. This is a switch on the left rear of the receiver. When flipped up (on the Norwegian Krag-J rifles and carbines), the cut-off does not allow cartridges in the internal magazine to be fed into the chamber by the advancing bolt. This was intended to be used for when soldiers were comfortably firing at distant targets. After each shot, the soldier would take a round out of his pouch and load it directly into the chamber as if he was using single-shot rifle. The rounds in the magazine are thus held in reserve. If the enemy suddenly charged or the soldier was ordered to charge, the soldier could then retract the cut-off for up to five rounds of rapid shooting. The <a href="/wiki/M1903_Springfield" title="M1903 Springfield">M1903 Springfield</a> that replaced the Krags had a magazine cutoff, as did the <a href="/wiki/Lee%E2%80%93Enfield#Short_Magazine_Lee–Enfield_Mk_I" title="Lee–Enfield">SMLE</a> (<a href="/wiki/Lee%E2%80%93Enfield" title="Lee–Enfield">Lee–Enfield</a>) until 1915. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Danish_Krag–Jørgensen_rifles"><span id="Danish_Krag.E2.80.93J.C3.B8rgensen_rifles"></span>Danish Krag–Jørgensen rifles</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Krag%E2%80%93J%C3%B8rgensen&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Danish Krag–Jørgensen rifles"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:M1889_Krag-J%C3%B6rgensen_Danmark_8x58mmR_Arm%C3%A9museum_noBG.png" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/bb/M1889_Krag-J%C3%B6rgensen_Danmark_8x58mmR_Arm%C3%A9museum_noBG.png/300px-M1889_Krag-J%C3%B6rgensen_Danmark_8x58mmR_Arm%C3%A9museum_noBG.png" decoding="async" width="300" height="135" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/bb/M1889_Krag-J%C3%B6rgensen_Danmark_8x58mmR_Arm%C3%A9museum_noBG.png/450px-M1889_Krag-J%C3%B6rgensen_Danmark_8x58mmR_Arm%C3%A9museum_noBG.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/bb/M1889_Krag-J%C3%B6rgensen_Danmark_8x58mmR_Arm%C3%A9museum_noBG.png/600px-M1889_Krag-J%C3%B6rgensen_Danmark_8x58mmR_Arm%C3%A9museum_noBG.png 2x" data-file-width="2000" data-file-height="900" /></a><figcaption>Danish M.1889 carbine</figcaption></figure> <p>After strenuous tests, Denmark adopted the Krag–Jørgensen rifle on July 3, 1889.

A competition was held in 1892, comparing 53 rifle designs including Lee, Krag, Mannlicher, Mauser, and Schmidt–Rubin.<sup id="cite_ref-canfield_5-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-canfield-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The trials were held at <a href="/wiki/Governors_Island" title="Governors Island">Governors Island</a>, New York, and the finalists were all foreign manufacturers—the Krag, the Lee, and the Mauser. The contract was awarded to the Krag design in August 1892, with initial production deferred as the result of protests from domestic inventors and arms manufacturers. Two rifle designers, Russell and Livermore, even sued the US government over the initial selection of the Krag, forcing a review of the testing results in April and May 1893.

One of their first tasks was to find the best possible calibre for the new weapon. After extensive ballistic tests where different calibres were tested (8 mm, 7.5 mm, 7 mm, 6.5 mm etc.), the optimal caliber was determined to be 6.5 mm (0.256 in). Following this decision, a joint Norwegian-Swedish commission was established in December 1893.<sup id="cite_ref-NMG_2-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-NMG-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> This commission worked through a series of meetings to decide on the different measurements for the cartridge case. A rimless cartridge case of 55 mm length was approved, and each possible measurement (diameter at base, diameter at neck, angle of case, angle of shoulder etc.) was decided upon.<sup id="cite_ref-NMG_2-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-NMG-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The corresponding dimensions of the cartridge chamber to be used in a future service rifle was also determined.<sup id="cite_ref-NMG_2-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-NMG-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The cartridge became what is later known as 6.5×55mm. The round of ammunition is also known as 6.5×55 Krag, 6.5×55 Scan (Scandinavia), 6.5×55 Mauser, 6.5×55 Swedish, and 6.5×55 Nor (Norwegian), but they all referred to the same cartridge. </p><p>Some historians have assumed that there was a difference in cartridge blueprint measurements between Swedish and Norwegian 6.5×55mm ammunition, but this may be unintentional. Due to different interpretations of the blueprint standard, i.e. the standards of manufacturing using maximum chamber in the Krag vs. minimum chamber in the Swedish Mauser, a small percentage of the ammunition produced in Norway proved to be slightly oversize when chambered in the Swedish Mauser action, i.e. requiring a push on the bolt handle to chamber in the Swedish arm. A rumour arose not long after the 6.5×55mm cartridge was adopted that one could use Swedish ammunition in Norwegian rifles, but not Norwegian ammunition in Swedish rifles.<sup id="cite_ref-NMG_2-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-NMG-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Some even alleged that this incompatibility was deliberate, to give Norway the tactical advantage of using captured ammunition in a war, while denying the same advantage to the Swedes. However, after the rumour first surfaced in 1900, the issue was examined by the Swedish military. They declared the difference to be insignificant, and that both the Swedish and Norwegian ammunition was within the specified parameters laid down. Despite this finding, the Swedish weapon-historian <a href="/wiki/Josef_Alm" title="Josef Alm">Josef Alm</a> repeated the rumour in a book in the 1930s, leading many to believe that there was a significant difference between the ammunition manufactured in Norway and Sweden.<sup id="cite_ref-NMG_2-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-NMG-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> It is worth noting that Sweden would later adopt a 6.5×55mm rifle with a much stronger Mauser bolt action, the m/94 carbine in 1894 and the m/96 rifle in 1896, both of which were proof-tested with loads generating significantly more pressure than those used to proof the Norwegian Krag action. </p><p>Once the question of ammunition was settled, the Norwegians started looking at a modern arm to fire their newly designed cartridge. The processing was modelled on the US Army Ordnance selection process and considered, among other things, sharp-shooting at different ranges, shooting with defective or dirty ammunition, rapidity of shooting, conservation of ammunition, corrosion resistance, and ease of assembly and disassembly.

Instead, the magazine was looked upon as a reserve, to be used only when authorized by a commanding officer. The Krag–Jørgensen was formally adopted as the new rifle for the Norwegian Army on April 21, 1894. </p><p>A total of more than 215,000 Krag–Jørgensen rifles and carbines were built at the Kongsberg Arms Factory in Norway. 33,500 additional M/1894 rifles were produced at Steyr (Österreichische Waffenfabrik Gesellschaft) in 1896–1897 under contracts for the Norwegian Army (29,000 rifles) and the Civilian Marksmanship Organisation (4,500 rifles).

Markings show these rifles were manufactured by Steyr concurrently with a large order of M1894 rifles made for Norway. Some parts of rejected Norwegian rifles may have been used in these weapons—many small parts have serial numbers that do not match receiver numbers, these mismatched small parts sometimes have numbers in ranges of rifles made for Norway, yet appear original to the rifle. Photographs of high-ranking Boer officers holding M1894-like rifles exist. Cartridge casings in 6.5×55 have been found on the Magersfontein battlefield and may have been fired by such M1894-like rifles. Some sources state that about 100 1896-date and at least about 200 1897-date rifles reached the Boers. Some rifles meeting this description exist in South African museums with Boer-war documentation, and in England documented as captured bring-backs. A few rifles having Norwegian inspector stamps and serial numbers in the civilian marksmanship organization serial number range are also known to be in South African museums and may have been used by Boer forces—it is suspected that these may have arrived in South Africa with a small Scandinavian volunteer force that fought for the Boers. A small number of Steyr 1897 M1894-like 6.5×55 rifles with 3-digit serial numbers outside the Norwegian contract ranges and in the same range as these Boer Krags, and lacking Norwegian inspection stamps like the low-numbered 1897 rifles in South African museums, are known to exist in the US—it is not known if these have Boer connections or were initially delivered elsewhere. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Subtypes_of_the_Krag–Jørgensen_used_in_Norway"><span id="Subtypes_of_the_Krag.E2.80.93J.C3.B8rgensen_used_in_Norway"></span>Subtypes of the Krag–Jørgensen used in Norway</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Krag%E2%80%93J%C3%B8rgensen&action=edit&section=10" title="Edit section: Subtypes of the Krag–Jørgensen used in Norway"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Norwegian_K-J_M1894_sniper.png" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/42/Norwegian_K-J_M1894_sniper.png/200px-Norwegian_K-J_M1894_sniper.png" decoding="async" width="200" height="40" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/42/Norwegian_K-J_M1894_sniper.png/300px-Norwegian_K-J_M1894_sniper.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/42/Norwegian_K-J_M1894_sniper.png/400px-Norwegian_K-J_M1894_sniper.png 2x" data-file-width="1059" data-file-height="213" /></a><figcaption>M1894 with telescopic sight</figcaption></figure> <figure typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Krag_J%C3%B8rgensen_M1897.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/65/Krag_J%C3%B8rgensen_M1897.jpg/200px-Krag_J%C3%B8rgensen_M1897.jpg" decoding="async" width="200" height="42" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/65/Krag_J%C3%B8rgensen_M1897.jpg/300px-Krag_J%C3%B8rgensen_M1897.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/65/Krag_J%C3%B8rgensen_M1897.jpg/400px-Krag_J%C3%B8rgensen_M1897.jpg 2x" data-file-width="2089" data-file-height="443" /></a><figcaption>M1897</figcaption></figure> <figure typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Norwegian_K-J_M1906.png" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e1/Norwegian_K-J_M1906.png/200px-Norwegian_K-J_M1906.png" decoding="async" width="200" height="40" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e1/Norwegian_K-J_M1906.png/300px-Norwegian_K-J_M1906.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e1/Norwegian_K-J_M1906.png/400px-Norwegian_K-J_M1906.png 2x" data-file-width="834" data-file-height="166" /></a><figcaption>M1906</figcaption></figure> <figure typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Norwegian_K-J_M1912.png" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/36/Norwegian_K-J_M1912.png/200px-Norwegian_K-J_M1912.png" decoding="async" width="200" height="40" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/36/Norwegian_K-J_M1912.png/300px-Norwegian_K-J_M1912.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/36/Norwegian_K-J_M1912.png/400px-Norwegian_K-J_M1912.png 2x" data-file-width="913" data-file-height="183" /></a><figcaption>Unmodified M1912</figcaption></figure> <p>The Krag–Jørgensen was produced in Norway for a very long time, and in a number of different variations.

Apart from various civilian calibres, the rifle was manufactured for the following service ammunition: </p> <ul><li>US <a href="/wiki/.30-40_Krag" title=".30-40 Krag">30–40</a>, a 7.62 mm (0.30 in) rimmed round loaded with 40 grains (3 grams) of smokeless powder. It gave a chamber pressure of 40000 lbf/in² (276 MPa), which resulted in a muzzle velocity of 609.6 m/s (2000 ft/s) in the rifles, and 597.4 m/s (1960 ft/s) from the shorter barrel of the carbines.</li> <li><a href="/wiki/6.5%C3%9755mm" class="mw-redirect" title="6.5×55mm">6.5×55mm</a>, a 6.5 mm (0.256 in) rimless round. Most variations are loaded for a chamber pressure of 350 MPa (roughly 51000 lbf/in²). Early rounds, with a 10.1 grams (156 grains) long round nosed bullet (B-projectile) had a muzzle velocity of around 700 m/s (roughly 2300 ft/s), while later rounds with a 9 grams (139 grains) spitzer bullet (D-projectile) offered a muzzle velocity up to 780 m/s (2559 ft/s).<sup id="cite_ref-NMG_2-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-NMG-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></li> <li>Danish <a href="/wiki/8%C3%9758mmR" class="mw-redirect" title="8×58mmR">8×58mmR</a>, a 7.87 mm (0.31 in) rimmed round.

During World War II, and also in the early 1950s, several were produced in <a href="/wiki/7.92%C3%9757mm" class="mw-redirect" title="7.92×57mm">7.92×57mm</a>, which can hardly be considered a low-power cartridge. A number of Krag–Jørgensens have also been converted to <a href="/wiki/.30-06" class="mw-redirect" title=".30-06">.30-06</a> and <a href="/wiki/7.62%C3%9751mm_NATO" title="7.62×51mm NATO">7.62×51mm NATO</a> for target shooting and hunting. However, it must be stressed that these were all late-production Norwegian Krag–Jørgensen rifles, made in an era when metallurgy was vastly more advanced than when the American Krag–Jørgensen rifles were made. Krag–Jørgensen rifles also only have a single locking lug. </p><p>Nonetheless, older rifles may benefit from milder loads. Modern European 6.5×55mm rounds are sometimes loaded to a CIP maximum of 55000 PSI, but 6.5×55mm rounds marked "safe for the Krag" are loaded to a milder 40600 PSI. <a href="/wiki/Sporting_Arms_and_Ammunition_Manufacturers%27_Institute" title="Sporting Arms and Ammunition Manufacturers' Institute">SAAMI</a> specifications call for maximum average pressure of 46000 PSI, sufficient for 2,380 ft/s (730 m/s) with a 160 grain bullet.<sup id="cite_ref-saami_34-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-saami-34"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>34<span
