The front sight assembly has the bayonet lug made as part of it.
In front of the sight assembly is a cap that covers the muzzle.
It's the cap you need to remove.
Once the cap is off, you may or MAY NOT find threads.
Some rifles have threads, some have un-threaded barrels, and some have the threads ground off.
Usually, the caps are welded on with a short bead on the bottom side of the cap.
You can usually cut through that bead and unscrew the cap if the barrel is threaded.
Note that these rifles have LEFT-HAND threads.
If it's equipped with it, there may also be a spring-loaded pin sticking out the front of the sight support, on top.
This is used to prevent a muzzle device or cap from unscrewing.
If there's one there, you'll have to push and hold it in, in order to unscrew the cap once the weld is cut.
