WTS - Trio of M1 Bayonets with M7 Scabbards
For your consideration are three 10" original point M1 Garand bayonets - 2 Utica Cutlery and 1 American Fork and Hoe.
I had purchased the blade assemblies/guard/handles several years ago from CMP. They were covered in cosmoline and simply that…the blade assemblies/guards and handles. I went to work searching for the grips, grip screws and catches. There was a VERY helpful collector in France that supplied me with various USGI parts used in the re-assembly. All three bayonets catches function and lock into the scabbards.
Included with the bayonets are 3 E-US scabbards. These were purchased separately from the bayonets. They are a copy of the US M7 scabbard made under contract for the Greek military. They are in good used condition and show signs of refurbishment with additional paint/ added reinforcement tips. Some contain Greek writing carved onto them.
For reference - please refer to Mr. Gary Cunningham's bayonet site below:

In my opinion - Mr. Cunningham is one of the foremost experts on bayonets and his site is invaluable for reference.
These would be a great start for the beginning collector or one seeking bayonet/scabbard variants.
The price is $225 - which includes shipping within the continental US. Please email me directly (I do not check PMs) at cptdrobny@hotmail.com with questions or intent to purchase. Paypal is the preferred method of payment.
Thanks for looking...
