    West German or USA Stoner bayonet? Empty West German or USA Stoner bayonet?

    Post by gimpycanuck Tue Oct 06, 2020 10:20 am

    Hello everyone. I come seeking information regarding a bayonet I purchased 10 years ago, however I never used it nor did I try to research it until recently. My problem is that the bayonet has no markings visible to the naked eye, and it comes with what looks like a M8A1 scabbard with a wire cutter. I have several pictures that I hope will provide a concrete answer to my question. My research has narrowed to the Stoner 63A1 Assault Rifle bayonet, I think they referred to it as a KCB 77LM1 Bayonet? Again my main worry is that this is a copy, although the quality, heft and feel makes me think genuine? I couldn't be sure due to lack of Arsenal or manufacturers mark. Possibly a prototype bayonet? I have run out of ideas at this point. Any help would be appreciated.

    I've seen that you got a pretty good reply on Gunboards with quite a bit of good information.
