A Carcano bayonet altered for use on an Enfield. With the supply mess for both sides in N Africa, everybody used what was available and had sufficient ammo.

I lifted these pics from an Italian site where folks were showing their obscure stuff.

The muzzle ring has been enlarged - not sure if the catch has been altered - probably so.

Any of you gents happen to see one at a gun show, please get the seller's card. I'd like to grab one of these. Heck, I might even have to get an Enfield to display with it! SW

...bayonets are fascinating to me...I was shocked to find my boys got 0 knife or bayonet training before deploying to Iraq...and were issued neither...something comforting about a sticker on the end of the barrel...gave you another option if you heard the dreaded "click"...
