Message: <blockquote data-quote="Perplexed" data-source="post: 1682932" data-attributes="member: 7157">Nice!  It even has an original M94 sling?  The metal piece underneath the barrel, extending from the barrel band to the nose piece, indicates this to be one of the M94/14 conversions, but apparently either the bayo lug was cut/ground off, or the lug/nose piece portion was cut off and replaced with a non-converted nose piece.  The M94/14 nose piece and bayo lug IIRC (not having my reference books in front of me) should be machined from the same block of steel as the long piece under the barrel, to lend strength to the mounting of a bayonet.  Do you have any close-up pics of the underside and front of the nose piece?The lack of a barrel extension means either the extension was cut off after importation, or else this M94/14 was imported to the US prior to the enactment of the rule mandating a minimum barrel length (in 1968, I believe).  I bet you can tell through a close inspection of the barrel, especially if the nose piece is removed, which one is the case.  Are there any import marks either on the barrel or on the receiver?Hopefully you won this with a bid typical of the M96's?  <img src="/images/smilies/wink2.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":wink2:" title="Wink2    :wink2:" data-shortname=":wink2:" /></blockquote>
