I am wanting to find a Bayonet for my Newly Purchased No1 Mk3* Rifle.
Whats the proper type Im looking for?
I just want it to fit I dont care about where it was made etc.
Is it called a P7? I found some of those on Ebay but dont know exactly what Im looking for.
Thanks

I believe you are seeking a P1907 bayonet. It should be 17" long.
They should run about 45.00.
I'll see if I can post a picture of my P1907.

Ah I can envision British soldiers sitting around the campfire roasting weinies on that sucker. What a bayo! More like a sword.

So, the Brits decided to make their bayonet longer, thus negating the Mauser's advantage. The Pattern 1907 bayonet was made to reach out and really ruin somebody's day. ;)
