thanks mr. hosmer .for your response .and yes that was a strangly worded question. but it got someones attention .but im finding so many forems and such for the 30-40 krag  . my confusion with them is the fact that there is verry little data. from the US. rifles made between 1893 and 1895 . im finding a wealth of info for the rifles made over sea's in 1894 but not for us made rifles. here is one of the pages i have referenced that has caused this confusion .its from the military data site( Krag Model Production Summary:
