The 1896 and 1898 U.S. Krags basically use the same sideplate.


That isn't completely correct.  They changed the thickness of the tenon and the wrong plate will be a really tight fit, if you can get it in at all, if you attempt to install a thick tenon plate into a thin tenon receiver.

1896s are thin tenon.
