'Jon' - You have a very awesome model 1892 Krag.
Your bolt is a model 1892 bolt. (I don't believe they were numbered). Your rear sight is the model 1896 with the pronounced 'hump' on the hinge. These sights were a very early update and relatively scarce. Interesting wrist repair! (Oddly, that is the type of copper-wire reinforce that British Ordnance performed on the forearm of 'Grenade-Launching' Short Magazine Lee-Enfields). Krag, #2761, was produced around June to September, 1894. |
