Best Answer

serial number suggests that your rifle was produced in the middle of 1903, about the time the Springfield 03 was taking the field. 1903 was the first year that the Krag rifles were only produced as carbines. Rifles ended in 1902. From the serial number, it appears this is what you have: an m1898 carbine produced in the middle of 1903. As a note, this is near the end oof complete production for the Krag, as production ended in 1904.
