For the m94 Swedish carbine-originally made without provision for a bayo, by 1914 they had been altered with a new nose cap to mount this type (very different from the m96 rifle bayo)-see attached-the numbers stamped on the bayo and scabbard show what unit and rifle rack number (the individual storage no. within the unit) it had been issued to in service. A bit too blurry for my old eyes to make out.
