That might be a better model 1899 carbine stock to put on his Krag, (or at least the hand-guard).
The hand-guard is the type that was used with the model 1896 carbine sight, when that sight was used on carbines with the 1899 type stock. BTW/caution - Remove and replace Krag hand-guards by removing the rear-sight and stock. The hand-guards can then be slide 'back and forth' on the barrel taper and removed or replaced at the muzzle. If the Krag hand-guards (springs) are snapped in place, (or pulled off), over the barrel, the hand-guards will likely crack. |
