Looks like you have a 1898 saddle ring carbine stock. Is the original butt plate there? Lucky find there.

M1903 Springfield rifle front sight leads me to believe cut down rifle. What's the serial number? You have a 1902 rear sight.

Do you see a letter C on either side of the rear sight? C = equals carbine sight. No C = rifle sight.
