This is a 1853 pattern bayonet used from 1853 with the pattern 1853 three band Enfield rifle until 1878, long after the introduction of the Snider breech loading system in 1866 to this rifle. The bayonet is marked with an inspection stamp, a sold out of service mark and is engraved on the socket S.V.C. 411. The leather scabbard is brass mounted and has a tear drop frog stud. The throat of the scabbard is engraved at the locket C.V.C. 338. This is probably a volunteer bayonet. The price includes UK delivery. BAYO 560
