Observations: (by "Badger")

The Swedes didn't actually introduce the "losskjutningsanordning" and start threading muzzles for the BFA (Blank Firing Attachment) until 1955. The muzzle ends of some rifles which had been designated for training use, were then threaded to accept the BFA. When not fitted, the muzzle threads were protected by a cap made of yellowish or clear nylon.
