Anyone seen an airgun bayonet before?

[johnbaz]

Hi all

Was given this by a nice gent on a non airgun forum that knew I liked unusual airgun related stuff!

Made specifically for a mk1 Meteor but I suspect all the mk's are the same dia barrels, It fits on my old mk1 anyhow!







I tried it and took pics but then removed it as it's flippin' sharp! Also, I can't get the rifle back in the slip with the fitted!!

Anyone that looks in on The Airgun Forum may have already seen this!

That is one of the craziest things I've ever seen. I like it very much.

Looks well made, great if you've run out of pellets & need to finish off the vermin

They don't like it up 'em.

The Daisy WWI=era Model 40 came with a bayonet - nowadays a difficult item to find, and repro's have been made. Courtesy of D. Garvin, some images: https://forum.vintageairgunsgallery....-40/#post-1884

VZ35 trainers had a bayo fitting but used a standard one from firearms.

How long did it take to get it to balance on a Seiko?

I can't really see the point.





























Sorry.

I wondered about that too!

Hi Don

I had a vague recollection that i'd seen an airgun with a bayonet before, It must have been that one on Danny's site!

It's actually a semi running Pod watch! (Ana Digi but analogue part not running!), It was the first thing I found at the right thickness to make the rifle stand ok!

Seriously though, perhaps someone ran it up for some school theatricals? Journey's End or something, when they bring the German prisoner into the dugout for interrogation? I know a Mk1 Meteor doesn't look much like an SMLE but it would be good enough for that sort of thing. The block-y bayonet attachment is vaguely reminiscent of the LE's front end foresight ears and the length of the thing looks close enough to a Pattern 1907.

For paintball guns you can attach a paintbrush as a bayonet for when you run out of ammo.......
