Hi Duncan
I had a good look around the web , Russian or Asian / Chinese would have been a possibility in my mind , but nothing with a square shank came up . Perhaps it was a one off maybe an experimental idea .

Re: What Bayo is this..................
Blackisler suggested on the chat yesterday that it is a folding Nagant bayonet. It's made for a Nagant M44 carbine and has the spring loaded piece that locks the barrel ring removed. Seems like he's made a good guess. Either he's right or the rifle it attaches to attaches in the same way and there is something missing.
Re: What Bayo is this..................
Or... just maybe. It's from a Carcano carbine?
No. Not Corcano. But same idea again.

Re: What Bayo is this..................
The Carcano cavalry carbine looks more like it though .

Re: What Bayo is this..................
Dave... I think you have nailed it. That last link was right on target. I was looking at the wrong Carcano attached bayonet.

Re: What Bayo is this..................
Had you not mentioned Carcano I wouldn't have thought of it . as I looked at the pics you posted I decided to have another look around the net at Carcano and found it . Duncan now has to buy the rifle to fit it on .Niner wrote:Dave... I think you have nailed it. That last link was right on target. I was looking at the wrong Carcano attached bayonet.
