Has anyone seen a copy yet?

I've seen a few reviews on the USMF so far.

Yes. It's encyclopedic in extent and detail on the bayonets, with good info on the rifles as well. Recommended.

It's too bad Mr. Cunningham has passed. His knowledge of bayonets was unreal! Helped me out a few times! RIP.

I had the same problem with the website and then someone provided me with the email contact. The authors email address is dan@usm1917.com and he was a great fellow to deal with. The book is also very well written and full of, to me, new information.

On the old forum here I posted photos of an unusual modified M1905 scabbard. Gary was kind enough to comment on them and provide useful insights. We all enjoyed his articles on different bayonets. Indeed he will be missed.

I received my copy in 12/16. I was totally blown away at this comprehensive tome. There is much periferal, anicdotal and historical information and photo's.
Truly a work of love and dedication by Dan.

However, it could have been condensed to a couple of hundred pages if it just stuck to the specifics that many collectors need for reference.

But then, it wouldn't be the master price it is...
