'OneGuy' - Welcome to the KCA Forum.
You have an unofficially altered Norwegian model 1912 carbine. The stock has been cut-down ('sportered') and a sling and commercial swivels were added.
Near the 1918 date is a 'Crown & Stylized K', this indicates manufacture at Kongsberg Arsenal, Norway, in 1918.
When first manufactured, all of the serial numbers on the carbine would have matched #20752.
Attached photo shows original appearance of a Norwegian model 1912 "Karabin". The Norwegian Sling has a 'snap-hook' which allowed it to be attached to the "eye" mounted on the Butt or at the hole on the front of the trigger-guard.
