Erik J%C3%B8rgensen (gunsmith)

Erik Jrgensen was a Norwegian master gunsmith, well known for his cooperation with Ole Herman Johannes Krag in developing the successful KragJrgensen rifle.

Erik Jrgensen was born in Asker, Norway, and grew up on the farm Solstad. He educated himself to be a gunsmith and started working on Kongsberg Vpenfabrikk in 1870. It was here that he met Ole H J Krag and from 1871 Jrgensen worked with Krag on his rifles. As time went on, Jrgensen turned from just doing work for Krag to be an active participant in the development of the rifle which later became known as the KragJrgensen.
