Concur with Bruegger, for the most part. Leave the bayonet off. A good jab to the gut with a 1/2" diameter rifle barrel is going to HURT.

I'd stay away from the butt-stroke, though. It's pretty easy to break your stock by slamming it against some poor bugger's skull. Save your rifle for the shooting.

That said, a bayonet for CQB or room entry might be an idea worth exploring. By someone other than me, I mean.

John Steyrs' Cold Steel is a good introduction to bayonet fighting (among other things.) If you can find a copy, you might snap it up.
