Bayonet

India Pattern No1 MK1++ Bayonet, Scabbard and Frog. BAYO 508 - BAYO 508

This is an India pattern bayonet converted from a 1907 pattern bayonet. The original markings are still legible (crown ofer G.R. 1907 and 4 18 (April 1918 date) and SANDERSON). These bayonets were converted by India from full length to the shortened version in the 1950s. This example has Mk1++ stamped over the crowned G.R, on one side and F.R.56 on the other side of the blade. This denotes a factory repair in 1956. The blade has a false edge with the fuller running to the tip and has ben re-blued. The grips have an Indian inspection on one side. The bayonet is contained in its shortened Mk1 scabbard and the frog is a standard pattern 37 webbing version. See Skennerton item 152 on page 348 for an identical bayonet. This is a very nice condition India pattern for the serious collector. The price includes U.K. delivery. BAYO 508
