Do you have the m/1914 bayonet as well? Or perhaps the more fearsome m/1915. I do my friend. For others out there, Armfeldt is legit. Get his "K" stuff while you can!

Scott Thank you for those kind words Scott. Slings used to be available but slowly and surely they seem to have dried up. I have a couple of them but I'm not parting with them for the time being.

BillinBama Posted September 9, 2023 Report Share Posted September 9, 2023 Mine too, only six days from Sweden to Alabama, the USPS should be so efficient locally. Packing was superb, and the parts just as described, very fair pricing too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

armfeldt Posted September 9, 2023 Report Share Posted September 9, 2023 Just thought I'd share these. The difference in length between the two bayonet versions for the m/45 is quite clear in this photo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The shorter one is army and the longer one is the navy model. m/1914 and M/1915 respectively. Their use on the m/45 was an afterthought. It came about from UN service in the Kongo where a blade gave more respect than the m/45 itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
