    I have a Vietnam era bayonet for my AR. I am a Vietnam Vet. My AR has a M16 1/12 twist barrel . Bayonet fits perfectly . Not a knock off.

    Nice collection. Btw as a pro tip the long bayonets tend to get stuck in "target" more & are a bit more unwieldy than the shorter ones are.

      @SharpPointyThings  9 месяцев назад +7

      And they really work better on much longer weapons. OTOH, if you're standing guard and need to intimidate potential hostiles...

      Just don't stick it in as far......longer is better

      When I was a kid, I had a Sunday school teacher who was an infantrynan in the Korean War. When I went into the Army, he told me if my bayonet gets stuck in the enemy, just pull the trigger. True story.

    very cool. i made a bayonet for my AR15 /M4gery because the need for a 16 inch barrel and then the muzzle brake/flash hider made the muzzle ring rattle around on the barrel instead of the muzzle brake. so i took a mosin 91/30 spike cut it to the proper lenth and welded surplus M7 hardware on, made a custom walnut grips and there you go. it will fit on my SP1 and my Galil the muzzle ring is just at the very end of the break. looks wicked. at the time the mosin spikes were $20 or so.

      with a 16in barrel you need a mid-length gas system to get the gas block to muzzle length right.

    “Its nice and pointy and sticky, but that’s about it.” Literally the only things you need a bayonet to be. Seriously though, very informative video and great work on that custom made one! 👍

    Reminds me of one of the stories dad told often about Army basic training. They were doing the crawl under elevated barbed wire while live rounds were fired overhead. They were required to do the crawl with rifles with the bayonets installed. The bayonet was never ever to be called a knife.
    So there they are, belly crawling along, when someone shouts "Cease fire! Cease Fire! I lost my knife!"

    I remember some Marines in my company that acquired M-7 Bayonets with longer blades prior to deployment, reportedly German made..Made in West Germany ( circa ) 1980s. I like having bayonet on my rifle when firing it is undesirable, but also as you aptly pointed out, for probing, places you do not want to place your hand.

  • @johnnyweston9954
    @johnnyweston9954 20 дней назад

    That gab on the M7 handle is on purpose. It's to keep the plastic grips away from the metal to reduce shock force that could potentially crack them.

    Iraq 2004 all we had was homemade hillbilly armor. We pointed our barrels out where the windows used to be. Heavily populated towns people would back away further when guys started putting their bayonets on.

  • @clamum9648
    @clamum9648 Месяц назад

    I got an M7 bayonet for a 20" A1(ish) clone and it doesn't snap onto the lug.
    I realized that I can get one of the claw lock things on the bayonet to actually lock if I push it closed with a bit of force, but the other claw will not budge and lock. It sure looks like everything's ok but something must be off. Maybe the "shelf" on the lug on the gas block is like a hair short of where it needs to be? I'm talking about the little "shelf" that's on the front of the lug that goes right into the back of the bayonet. I'm thinking about taking a Dremel to it and just polishing it down like a hair. I dunno worst thing that happens is it doesn't work and I'm back to where I'm at now anyway.
