M5 Series M-1 Garand Bayonets @ SOG

[snafuie1]

Just a quick ? for you garand junkies out there. Would these M5 Bayos being sold at SOG be correct for a HRA? or are these post korea? Any info would be helpful.

The 5A is post Korea, but many mistake it for being Korean vintage. The 10 inch M1 bayonet was standard issue during Korea. That said, it's the only bayonet, (5A) that does not mess up the Garands accuracy when mounted. The M1 really monkeys with the accuracy. I have a model 5 bayonet for each of my Garands for practical reasons but the M1's for historical reasons.
