Re: Yugoslavian AKM 6X4 Type II bayonet & Scabbard

It is not a manipulation. Mike has already made correct statements about it, there are clearly manufacturing errors. It may be that the casting stuck to the mold during injection molding due to excessive heat or a lack of release agent. This is particularly extreme with your Jugo. I'll show one of t...

Re: DDR M.59 / Russia 6X3

Unfortunately no, then we would have more AK bayonet variants. I'll summarize everything very briefly. The Russians were very, very suspicious! They only gave Poland and Germany a license to manufacture the AK at the beginning. Bulgaria followed later. Techechlovakia had taken a special route. Hunga...

Re: Russian AKM 6X3 Type I -II Transitional Bayonets and Scabbards

Mike, Nice job Mike I want to write something about it. First of all I have to explain something for further understanding, Ischmasch was primary, i.e. the main business, Tula was secondary. I can't really get used to the term 6x3 bayonet transition. If you look closely, there is no such thing, even...

Re: East German Honour Dagger

Well, the GDR had significantly higher-quality excellent honor gifts for high-ranking officers. Without an inscription about the reason for the award, these would also be relatively meaningless. What is offered there for 800 € is good enough for a simple soldier but also meaningless without an inscr...

Re: (10) 6H5 bayonet with russian souvenir marking

According to Russian law, no naked weapons are allowed to be exported. There is an exception in which these are deactivated - by cutting the blade - by permanently blocking the planting device. these variants were exported as "HC" collector's knife and "HB" survival knife from Is...

Re: AKM Bayonets & Scabbards

Normally all protruding parts to the outside.
It depends on how you store the bayonets.
With flat storage, leatherloops upwards so that they do not flatten and form cracks.
With the insulator rubber pocket upwards so that there is no pressure on it.

Re: Romanian AKM 6X3 Type 1 for PSL rifle

Congratulations on your Romanian MD.63 Bayonet.
It is one of the few from the early years of manufacture.
Clean Blade, without the usual striking deep grinding marks.
As I see it, with an Acceptance stamp on the Crossguard.
Look for further Acceptance stamps.

Re: Unknown type AKM 2 scabbard

But that serial number isn't russian !?
  I think the serial number is not Russian.
I only saw a similar milled number on Bulgarian bayonets.

Re: AK47 bayonet (6x2) Russian, with wooden grips?

I think Mike are right.
Rub the black paint with steel wool at the red marked area.
I think there comes the Korean star in a circle.
