Although not practical, I appreciate the mindset.

Nice. It’s what I’m searching for. Big dollars.

The Norinco clones are great shotties and avaialable for a lot less.

Sorry. Wasn’t clear enough. I have an original 1897 so I’m looking for a bayo for it. They are going for over $500 or more.

My most expensive bayo was "only" $300 or so. I never thought I'd spend that much on a bayonet.

I have this bayonet also.

It fits on several of my rifles, but doesn't really have a home.

It use to be the knife I carried on my war belt.



This is another bayonet that I have that needs a rifle.

Nothing says "GET OFF MY LAWN!" like a M1 with a bayonet.

I shoot my military rifles, I do think it’s dumb to get bayonets for them. It’s not as if you’re ever going to use them. With that said I want them and have many. So that’s that.

Ok I'll be that guy. That's not an m1 .
Looks like a 1903 with a 1905 bayonet

Thanks for coming to my Marty talk

Picked up a Japanese Arisaka (type 2) paratrooper rifle years ago. The bayonet goes for about $1500.
Think a type 30 Arisaka bayonet but cut down and markers mark on the spine vs ricasso. Been searching for a bargin for years.

Have lots of Milsurps and most with original or repo bayonets. Planning on making a fancy display rack at some point.

Sure, but the pics of actual M1's weren't anywhere near as funny. Bald dude in khakis vs. sleeveless tribal tatts boy. Just pretend it's Hollywood. At least there was a lawn involved.
