This is one of the best web sites there is for the Krag. There are pictures posted on the Home page of the different Carbines.by your serial number yours was assembeled in May of 1896, and by your serial number your Carbine should be a Model 1896 not a 1895. some pictures of you weapon would help. and you would also need to measure your barrel by inserting a cleaning rod down the barrel with the bolt closed. Mark the rod where the end of the barrel is and it should be 22 inches. Like yours my Carbine also has the plate on the site but not Saddle ring Bar or Ring. I am not sure if this was done at a Depo or what as Mine is the only one that I have seen like this.
