Indian bayonet

Post by joseyclosey » Wed Jul 13, 2005 1:52 pm

This is the India bayonet No.1 MK2 for the Indian Short Magazine Lee Enfield.

Manufactured in 1943 it does not appear to have been issued, the scabbard is a shortened black leather No.1.

I bought it complete with the as new webbing frog. (37 pattern)?

Just need a nice Indian smellie to affix it to now. :D
