Do you have bayonets for your rifles? - Page 3

I'd like to have a "Pionier" 1914 Sawback for my K-31. I have the standard bayonet with my Mosin and the one prefixed in my SKS.

I did, we did. the bayonet was indispensable. I could dig a hole with a bayonet about as fast as I could with an entrenching tool which I didn't carry (do to the weight). I kept it sharp and I used it to untangle my gun (M60) out of wait-a-minute bushes. It would slice the c-rat bread and hold the slices over a little fire to make toast. It was good for poking rice bags looking for weapons.

I used it for everything (it and my little silver US boyscout type knife).

I cannot fathom an infantryman not having a bayonet.

Even now I keep my M9 bayonet in my 4 wheeler. One of the best tools out there for fixing fences and such.
