Swede front barrel band

So...what's the deal here? These are 2 of my swedes side by side. Note the contour differences in addition to the width differences. And ones total lack of any bayonet mounting hardware. From the lug to the positioning nut hole. One is a 1902 with no bayonet bits. And the other is an 1899 WITH the mounts.

might be a bubba job. give me a day or so to dig my 99 oberndorf out of the safe and take a look. Going to buy an m38 and a Ljungman tomorrow too(woohoo!). That may just be a bubba job though, or some kinda arsenal rework? I dunno. Only had 2 swedes and one was a chopped up sporter so I sold it.
