Depends on the associated notation. If it says "issued" that's what it was. If a unit is cited, the date is when it was recorded in the records of that unit. If it says destroyed, that's when it was scrapped, etc. Even if it says nothing, you at least know whether it was recorded as a rifle or carbine.
