LOL!, You gave me a window LoLo.
The 1900 short rifle is numbered P 162, 1 of 176 made I believe. It has some condition problems(Bubba got his hands on it), but its a rare one.

The rifle is all matching. I purchased an 1889 buttplate and I am going to take the bubba buttplate off and install this one. I also need to splice the sawed forstock.

I've never before seen a bayonet that I HAD to have. But that bayo in the 3rd photo I'm in love with. Just what exactly is it? I saw something similar once before I believe was called the "Pioneer". That thing is impressive. I'm betting they're not cheap.

Oh, why do you guys have to do this to me? This stuff is worse than crack I swear :!:

Np.

Just hate ya for showing it to me :!:

Now I've gotta get one. :grin:

I just remember hearing years ago about a bayo like that all I could remember is that called the "Pioneer" and how the Geneva convention was all up in arms about it cause it caused pretty wicked wounds.

So just what name or designation does that particular sort of bayo go by?
