French Model 1886 Lebel Bayonet |
|
This is a cruciform - 4-edged - blade that is nothing more than a "pig-sticker". It replaced the French Model 1874 "Gras" Bayonet.
This bayonet was manufactured to fit the French Model 1886 Lebel Infantry Rifle and saw action in WWI and WWII in various configurations - including arsenal "shortened"
and "modified" versions. |
