While looking for a krag stacking swivel for you in my pile I happen to come across my 1903 rodbayonet rifle stacking swivel which I always mistaken for a krag until I actually looked at it.

I probably have one.
Have a big box of Krag odds and ends came from an old guy used to sporterize.
If I had a photo to look at I'd look thru the box for yoy.
Any idea where I can see what one looks like?

Attached photo of model 1898 Krag front barrel-band and stacking-swivel.

The S&S Firearms ($12.00) Stacking-Swivel is a reproduction.

An original Part is available from 'movieman630' on ebay. His business is 'grandpa's gun parts'. He is the grandson of the late Joe DeChristopher. I believe his original stacking-swivel costs $35.00.

FWIW: 1903 Springfield 'stacking-swivel' and screw will also work. (They seem identical). Swivel screw was cut with a Die - .187" X 26 tpi.

1903 is too narrow, the Repro from S&S looks perfect, cant tell from an original so save some money there!

'danco101' is correct.

The 'screw-lug' on the 1903 Stacking-Swivel is a lot narrower than the lug on the Krag Stacking-Swivel. I should have looked before I replied!
