Parashooter,
Went back and looked at the reamers and they sure look like 30/40. 1900 is probably too early to be tooling up for the 03-A3 Springfield.

The US Krag front sight base has a transverse hole for a tiny pin that retains the front sight blade (visible at top of attached image). What has this to do with the 03-A3?
