Photos of my Bayonets and Scabbards

[cowtownscout]

I collect US Military Long Arms and currently have about 100 pieces of history in my care. They span from Flintlocks of the French & Indian War and Revolutionary War all the way to what is currently in service. They include the appropriate slings and bayonets with scabbards for most. I posted these bayonet photos on another forum back in 2015 starting with reference books, socket bayonets, sword bayonets (sold 2 since then) and then knife bayonets. They start out grouped by era and include identification of the bayonet and related scabbard. Then the format changes as I added bayonets and scabbards with more photos of each. So hope you enjoy the photos. (This is my forth thread started on Culver’s, one was a Remington Model 10-A in the Military Shotguns Forum, one was photos of my sniper rifles in the sniper forum and one just posted today is photos of my US Navy BP bolt rifles in the Krag forum.

[m1ashooter]

Nice collection

[p246]

Thanks for the pictures. Very nice

[Misfit-45]

Thanks for showing us your collection. I have a healthy collection, but not as large as this. Very nice. Thanks again.
Marv

[ww2eyes]

some real antique stuff here, wow just wow.

[chucklamb]

Very nice collection!

Chuck

[hyrax222]

A labour of love, to be sure. Very nice collection.

[free1954]

very nice collection. should be on display in a museum.

[Dick Hosmer]

Wow, VERY nice - puts my little hoard to shame, but I only collect in the Indian War and Span-Am period. Have both TD trowels with scabbards, but no Krag Bowie (too much $$$ and way too many fakes).

[Dan Shapiro]

Wow! Showed the wife your pictures. I'm not looking bad now with just 15! Thanks!

[hyrax222]

Really nice collection! Great photo's and thank you for sharing....

[Tkacook]

Very nice collection! I have many, but not as nicely organized and cataloged as yours that's for sure.

Discovered a work around for the Photo Bucket ransom on another forum and it works so I will be slowly fixing a bunch of my threads with photos.

Yup, I suggest the "Photobucket Embedded Image Fix", it's a browser extension that makes all the ransom images from Photobucket visible, even in third-party websites, such as this forum. :)
