Title: Re: 1895 krag

Being above 37100, that marking would have to be "Model 1896".

The last digit of the date can be hard to distinguish between a "6" and an "8" on some specimens, in certain lighting, which can lead to questions if the bolt area isn't shown, but I've never seen an "1895" stamp that wasn't perfectly clear.
