It is a 1900 sideplate. The 1900 has a different trigger and sideplate transfer lever than later models. The lower extension and slot in the trigger is shorter, and the lower arm of the lever is shorter on a 1900. Therefore, unless something is very worn you can't assemble a later sideplate onto a 1900.
