Your rifle isn't a KKJ - J stands for Jagd- but a KKM. Early KKMs had the trigger based on the KKJ, then they changed to a match trigger with fixed trigger blade before they revised it again with the trigger that has the blade adjustable for length.

The receiver cut outs for the trigger assembly are different and so are the locations for the sears and the firing pins, making parts replacement a nightmare.
 
You have an early KKM. The slingswivels pre-date the UIT rules and were for a shooting strap, rather, than a sling to carry the gun.

The first KKM's were based on the pre-war KKJ, as that pre-war design was ready when Germany was allowed rifle production again.

Anschutz followed suit with the AnschĂĽtz 54 that was developped by Gehmann. Both designs were developped out of a reduced size Mauser bolt, as commonly seen in the DSM.
