Attention New Members and those new registering! We had a lot of problems with spammers and bot attacks with the stock measures provided by the software. The 7 for registration was a fix that we came up with on our own that has worked quite well. Yes it is a PIA for both you and administration to put you onto your chosen username. If you come back on and your login does not work retry with your username without the 7. Thanks for joining us from the administration.

I always liked to buy books on the things I collect so I don't make to many costly mistakes, so As you can see I have a thing for bayonets. So I thought I would share some of the references I have found to be helpful with everyone else . here they are,they contain lots of photos and pictures.

Well it is very good, I heard some of the information is incorrect, I know that it needs to be updated, thats why I bought the book ,collecting bayonets.It includes more modern bayonets, plus you get real pictures.

Maddox book is good , the pictures are great, and it fills the gaps in Janzens book. I prefer the books with pictures over the drawings. It makes Identification far easyer.
