Yes it will fit the sleeve, and, if the receiver in which you plan to use it has the pin notch, it will function just fine. If you are putting it into an original un-notched receiver, it will still function as an extractor, but it will not hold the bolt open. Do NOT notch the receiver to match the extractor if it does not already have one!!!!!!!!

Geez, Dick! I already took a chain-saw file to the receiver and filed a notch into it~!

No, this receiver had been upgraded to 1896 config long before I got my hands on it.

Looks like I will be getting one of those 1898 extractors for 20 bucks, shipped.

Thanks for the good info.

From the upper right hand corner,
