I was organizing some Krag stuff, yesterday, and took some instructional pictures while things were out.
1. Model 1892 sight with proper screws.
2. Model 1896 Rifle sight with screws that are generally used.
3. Model 1901 Rifle sight with proper screws.
4. Model 1902 Rifle sight, (altered 1898 leaf variation & 1903 knob), with proper screws. These screws were also used with the 'discontinued' 1898 sight, for 2,200 fps ammunition.
5. View of a model 1902 sight base. (The 1898 sight base has an entirely different spring retention method).
Over the years some Krags have received replacement sight screws .... Who, where, or why? - I don't rightly know.
