Your carbine has a mis-matched part. The great majority of Swedish military firearms have matching numbers. It does detract from the collectible value overall. In the buyer driven market for m/94 Swedish carbines that mis-match part may decrease value $100-150 depending on factors at the time of offering like overall condition.

The higher the overall condition the more the mis-match part/s will detract from price. In other words, a lower condition carbine wouldn't be as affected as a higher condition. Your carbine is a pretty decent looking example. Don't sweat the little stuff. Drink the kool-aid and act like life is hunky dory and nobody will notice you possess a mis-match Swede carbine.

Feb 9, 2018 - Production continued in 1899, following the 1898 serial numbers over 20,xxx. According to ' Mauser Bolt Rifles ' by Ludwig Olson, the Swedish. The first rifles were built at the Carl Gustaf factory with receiver dates starting with 1898 and serial numbers beginning at '1' and ending in 1925 at circa serial number 517,277 or later. The Swedish government paid Mauser a royalty of 2,25 Kronor (Crowns) for each rifle (about US $0.612 at the time).

They are not the same as m/96 slings. One in even mediocre condition could run $100+. What some guys wisely do is modify a m/96 sling and secretly pray nobody notices. And they usually don't.

In other words: forgot finding a carbine sling. The only difference is in the overall length and where the carbine sling attaches to the sling buckle, the m/96 sling has a sling button. Shorten the m/96 sling and poke a hole with an awl for the sling buckle and walla. You now have a carbine sling.
