Australian Aybrid ‘Owen’ S.M.G. Bayonet and Scabbard. BAYO 769. - BAYO 769
Early in 1944, 100 shortened, lightened No 1 rifles were produced at Lithgow (The Lithgow Small Arms Factory, or Lithgow Arms, is an Australian small arms manufacturing factory located in the town of Lithgow, New South Wales. It was created by the Australian Government in 1912 to ease reliance on the British for the supply of defence materials.) for the army, along with bayonets. The shortened, lightened No 1 was really only the standard No 1 rifle reduced in length with a modified sight, and so the bayonet was merely a shortened No 1. The blade of this bayonet is marked ‘M.A. (Lithgow) ‘1907’ and ‘11’44’ (November 1944) The other side carries the broad arrow and ‘O.A.’ (Orange Arsenal).
