All the ones I have or have played with sit behind the groves, like this photo.
 As for your other question about what the grooves are for, they are used for mounting things to the gun. Blank Fire Adapter. 
Suppressors

Thanks guys! I had looked at a lot of pictures of mounted bayonets, but none that I found gave such a clear view.
(My interest here comes from wanting to make a mid-length-gas barrel that would correctly fit with a bayonet. Apparently I guessed right — I cut the barrel so that things fit as shown above. FWIW, the typical 16” is a bit too short for this.) |

Also, before the XM-148 and M203, a common method of launching grenades was a rifle grenade over the muzzle and launched with a blank. The groves in the flash suppressor provided for a better gas seal. Today, they mainly function as a place to attach the blank adaptor but little else.
