Maybe a little off-topic, but I was watching "Hogan's Heroes" on TVland the other day and I swore SGT. Shultz was carrying a Krag-Jorgenson, I could see the side loading gate. Has anyone else ever seen this?
[rolleyes]
You have to wonder if the prop guy did this on purpose just for fun.

It is very possible.  Germany (and the Frogs and Brits) probably captured a large portion of the Norwegian small arms after the invasion.

I used to have a Norwegian Krag model 1894.  I understand production of these continued through the war (#2 that is!) and were issued to second line troops.

An interesting thing about my Krag - it was a parts gun.  A previous owner had a stock I placed on this.  He had glass bedded it to another Norwegian Krag, which had German proofmarks on the bottom of the barreled action.  I seem to remember a swastika, but it was most likely a waffenampt stamp(s).

If I could find that rifle again, I would pay double what I had sold it for.  

I you ever saw the movie "The Fighting Seabees" with "The Duke" The japs all had Kregs.[;)]

I can’t remember the name of it, but I recall recently seeing a WWII era British war movie in which the German soldiers had Lee-Enfields.  

I recall many old gangster/private detective movies where everyone seemed to have the same handgun (apparently the actors swapped it between scenes).

I recall older Western movies where cowboys carried double action Colt New Service revolvers with swing out cylinders.  These revolvers had metal welded underneath the barrel to look like a percussion revolver loading lever.

In the movie “Sergeant York”, Gary Cooper carried a 1903 Springfield; supposedly the real Sergeant York carried a 1917 Enfield.

If my memory hasn’t failed, I recall a British officer in Disney’s “Swamp Fox” with a percussion pistol.

Etc., etc.

I’ve also seen the Krag in Hogan’s Heroes (hard to miss that magazine gate) – I suspect it was what the prop guy had lying about.

I think John Wayne had a Krag too.

Sorry Chuck your right and I can't type to save my life. Krag it is[:)]. HvyAR John Wayne used a "captured" Krag. Think I am going to watch it again tonight.
