Italian M91/38 Carcano Carbine Folding Bayonet & Scabbard. BAYO 340 - BAYO 340 Italian M91/38 Folding bayonet for use on the Italian Mannlicher-Carcano M-1891/38 and M-1938 rifles and carbines. The bayonet is 11“in overall length, with a 7 1/8” spear point blade. The bayonet has a round release button on the reverse of the hilt at the crossguard, which allows the blade to be folded back into the hilt and a recess in the forend of the rifle or carbine to which it was mounted. This allowed the bayonet to remain fixed on the gun, but folded out of the way. The bayonets were also accompanied by steel scabbards to allow them to be removed from the gun and carried on the belt with other field gear. The blade of the bayonet retains about 90% of its original purple tinged browned finish, which has a deep plum colour. The wooden grips are good with only minor wear near to the opening for the blade and near one of the pins and is numbered ‘I 13244’. The folding mechanism of the bayonet is fully functional and works smoothly, locking securely into both the extended and folded positions. The locking mechanism, which secures the bayonet to the rifle, is fully functional as well and is mechanically excellent. The bayonet retains its original sheet metal scabbard. The scabbard is the style with an angled 1” belt loop on the rear of it, and not the type with a hook intended for use with a bayonet frog. See page 200 of White & Watts ‘The Bayonet Book’. The price includes UK delivery. BAYO 340. (All countries Box 1) £275.00 |

C1965 Cold War AKM Type II Bayonet & Scabbard for the AK47 Rifle. BAYO 339. - BAYO 339 The improved AKM Type II bayonet was introduced in 1965 and brought with it two significant changes. A squared-off steel pommel was added, to address the fragile nature of the Type I's bulbous plastic pommel. Revolutionary as it was, the Type I design couldn't change soldiers, who seem naturally inclined to use the pommel as a hammer. The second major change was a new scabbard. Advances in plastics technology had reached the point where the scabbard body could be made of moulded plastic, with only a metal end for the wire cutter. This eliminated the need for a rubber insulator, as the plastic scabbard body was non-conductive. The AKM Type II bayonet was produced by Bulgaria, China, Iraq, East Germany, Romania, Russia, and Yugoslavia. Variations were also produced by India and Vietnam. The AK-47 is a Russian combat rifle first used in 1949. It and an updated version called the AKM were used by the Soviet Union's military (which was called the Soviet Army). It was later replaced by the AK-74 and AK-12. The blade is un-fullered, has no markings and measures; 15 cm (27 ½ cm overall) the plastic grips are held with one pin and have the manufacturers stamp of an arrow within a triangle and a leather strap, the metalwork is good and the catch is in working order. The moulded plastic scabbard has its leather belt hook attached, there are minor service wear marks and it has a good patina with ‘941’ - ‘5280’ and the manufacturers stamp of an arrow within a triangle to the lower part. See page 448 No 958 in The Bayonet Book by White & Watts. The price includes UK delivery. BAYO 339. (Box 2 All other countries) £195.00 |

Italian WWI 1891/38 Carcano L. Franchi fixed Blade Bayonet and Leather Frog. BAYO 333. - BAYO 333 The folding bayonet was found to be a poor design.

This is a very nice fixed version, the release button works and the wooden grips are in good condition only showing minor signs of service wear. Serial number (N73272) 3 and L. FRANHCI is stamped on the side. The handle is 4 “, the blade 7 “and the overall length is 11 “. It comes with its correct 1891/38 scabbard which retains the majority of its paint and its rare leather frog which is in very good order and has a lovely patina.
