Romanian AKM 6X3 Type I Iraqi Marked?

Post by Mr. B. »

A friend in Poland, (Patryk Ees), recently sent me pictures of a Romy AKM 6X3 bayonet and scabbard. The trench art is interesting, but difficult to document. What really caught my attention was the embossed triangle emblem on the front of the scabbard hanger. Could this be Iraqi Republican Guards property marked? Has anyone else noticed the triangle on any other bayonets, scabbards or hangers? Mike

Very interesting. Was/is your friend from Poland, part of the NATO force in Iraq back then?
