Remington Bayonet

Rolling block rifles and bayonets were purchased for auxiliary troops while the principal French rifles went to the front. Very uncommon to find, this bayonet is 20.5” overall with the blade being 16”. The unmarked hardwood grips are held with two studs, the lock button works as it should. The blade is in very good condition with only minor signs of age related wear with ‘Remington Arms – Union Metallic CTG. Co. REM Works, Ilion, U.S.A. (produced under contract during WWI for the French war effort) inscribed inside the fuller to one side. The undamaged steel scabbard has a good patina and the leather hanger is intact with all stitching in place. See White & Watts page 411 & 433 item No 919. The price for this ‘rare with a long blade’ bayonet and scabbard includes UK delivery. BAYO 6287.
