Modele 1886/93/16 Lebel Bayonet

Description

Pattern of 1886 bayonet for Lebel infantry rifle. Early patterns hava a hooked quillon but these were later either factory-removed or newly made without. Striations on crossguard suggest this one has been machined-off. Some also have grip in Brass instead of white metal. Frog is of unknown pattern but appears to fit scabbard.

Marks and Stamps: (Crossguard) Serial no (Scabbard ring) non-matching serial 923456
