I got this about two weeks ago and finally took some (crappy cell phone quality) pictures of it. Also, I got the matching year bayonet for it in the mail today. Enjoy!

Shown next to my M1 Carbine .30 Cal (http://www.co-ar15.com/forums/showthread.php?t=36872)

Bayonet fixed to the Mauser. It's nearly 60" in length!

Very nice! Milsurp rifles just ain't complete without a toad stabber, are they? I need them for two Swiss K31's, two Enfield No.1's, an Enfield No.4, and an Enfield No.5. Got 'em for my Garand, two USGI M1 carbines, and the Mosin 91/30.

What I really want/need is a safe, secure place where I can hang 'em on a wall for proper display! I need a damn concrete vault gun room in the basement. [Bang]

My son had to have a RC K98k also, forget the year 1938 maybe. Can you say where and how much you found the bayo for? He thinks he needs one also.

I got lucky and found it in an auction at auctionarms.com and got it for $67 shipped.
