Hey y'all
I have a 16 in windham with the A2 FSB with the bayonet lug. I love that I have it as it pisses off the joe bidens of the world. Anyway I was wondering if anyone knows of a freakishly long handled bayonet or what do y'all do with them? Happy freedom |

My Sergeant & I were probably the only troops w/ bayonets on my last deployment, and he only had one b/c I bought him one.

If I ever have to fire a shot I have utterly failed @ my job. The Brits, apparently, use them all the time, despite having one of the world's worst bayonet platforms. |

The likelihood of active duty troopers, let alone civilian members of the unorganized militia, having to fix bayonets and engage the enemy in mortal combat is low. However, the more common uses of fixed bayonets is by troops in formation engaged in riot control, and by individual troopers guarding POWs. To an unarmed rioter or POW, a sharp bayonet on the end of your rifle is a powerful deterrent.
BTW, IMO the M4 carbine is not properly configured to fix a bayonet. Notice in the Armalite pic linked above how several inches of the carbine barrel extend beyond the guard of a milspec bayonet, reducing its reach. Conversely, on the M16, with its 20" barrel, only the flash hider extends beyond the guard. By grasping the aft end of the M16's handguard with one hand and the receiver extension with the other, the total reach to the tip of an M7 bayonet is almost a long as that of an M1 Garand with an M5 bayonet. Not ideal, but plenty long enough to deter or defeat an angry rioter. - CW |

And the issued M4 carbine, w/ 14.5" bbl & carbine gas, IS properly configured to fix a bayonet. A 16" bbl w/ carbine gas is a civilian configuration and does not accept a standard military bayonet properly. |

Thanks, backbencher, I stand corrected. The M4 carbine and its M7 bayonet fit together like a glove, combat ready. - CW

Instead we train in Combatives, b/c rolling around w/ your enemy in the dirt is better than stabbing him repeatedly. ![]() |

There are situations where mounted bayonets are useful.
There are situations where a mounted bayonet can be a psychological deterrent. I seriously doubt I will ever be caught up in such a situation. The PO factor appeals to my sense of humor. |

You can buy bayonets on E-bay that have extra long handles so the fit a 16" carbine barrel.

That's almost lethal enough for a drive by bayonet-ing... Oh the depravity! Libtards WILL.... NOT.... SLEEP...

IF you like the M7 Bayonet, wouldn't it be simpler to just cut the steel under the grips and add a section, then wrap it with Paracord for a new grip?
