M1942 16" bayonet for my Springfield Armory M1 Garand ( circa 1944 )

==================================================================

M1959 6H3 bayonet for my Yugoslavian AKMS[P] {tritium-illuminated night sights}(circa 1970)

The blade forms a wire-cutting device when coupled with its scabbard. The polymer grip and upper part of the scabbard provide insulation from the metal blade and bottom part of the scabbard to safely cut electrified wire.

M7 bayonet for my M4 carbine ( circa 1980 )

This Swedish Mauser Bayonet's been in the family for YEARS. It was made during WW2 for the 6.5mm M96, M38 and M42b Ljungman rifles. I don't have much info on it other than my Grandad brought it back from overseas. Sure is nice lookin though. It's in great shape and carries a lot of sentimental value...

It's got the year 1939 marked into the leather on the back of the scabbard...

Here's my Romanian AKM-47 Type One bayonet...

Image

Image


Fits any standard AK-47 barrel. The protective coated steel Scabbard hooks onto the Bowie-style blade to form a wire cutter. Handle and Scabbard are made from a rugged non-electricity-conducting synthetic. hefty, sharp 5 3/4" carbon steel blade with serrated spine. Scabbard with belt loop Measures 10 3/4" weighs 1 lb.


It wouldn't be right if I didn't throw in a shot of the bayonet on my AK...
