If anyone has, or can find, contact information for Ron Pearson at "the Clip Joint" he might be able to help.
Have had really good luck with him in the past though "the past" for me is now more than a handful of years.
Unfortunately I'm out of town at the moment and don't have access to the phone number and address I have for him.
Good luck. The Krico is a nice little rifle and the .222 a great cartridge.

Likely your going to have a difficult search on your hands. My reference shows that early type of Krico rifle was made over 50 years ago, for only a short period of time. Doubtful that it was even imported and sold commercially in the States. Probably bought in a U.S. Army rod and gun club by a G.I., and then brought back stateside.
Best bet IMHO, is to contact all the on-line dealers who specialize in magazines. Also search all the on-line auctions, and put adds on all the on-line "wanted" boards that you can locate.0 -

ezink,
If possible, please post a couple of sharp pictures of your rifle, specifically the action/bolt and magazine area.
I think I remember a discussion about this a few years back and your rifle may be able to use another magazine but I need to see the action/bolt.

The Krico rifles is pictured and briefly described in the 1959 Gun Digest. Here is part of what it says. "The Krico action, made entirely of milled, machined parts, resembles the Brno short action in some respects, notable the rotating side safety and the integral scope dovetail-bases on the receiver." The listing does not mention an importer as it does for the Mannlicher-Schoenauer pictured on the same page. To me this supports rufe-snows comment that the Krico may not have even been imported and sold commercially in the US. 0 -
