Not rare at all. When the rifles were issued the serial number was inscribed on the bayonet. If the bayonet was lost or damaged, the armory simply issued a new one and inscribed it with the rifle's number. It wouldn't matter if you found a rifle with the original bayonet or not. There is literally no way for anyone to tell except the, most likely, deceased soldier to whom it was issued.
