I would think that legthening the magazine would be a difficult, if not, an impossible thing to do on the 1895. Certainly would not be worth the time and money. Find an old beatup 1886 and you could probably do it.

Standard .405 is already longer than any 1886 cartridge. I doubt it could be made to work, much less lengthened.
