Measure the diameter of your barrel, where your front band now sits high.

To fit correctly, the inside radius of the top part of your barrel band should match the radius of the barrel (plus probably .002").

The Armory accomplished this by 'stretching' regular Rifle front barrel-bands. (The home hobbyist may have to resort to 'grinding' the top inside of a regular front band with a Dremel Tool and polishing with Emery Cloth). 

Pictures are not the issue. Fit is.

Krag front bands should fit like this, even on School Rifles:
