Ugh those post AWB colt abominations. But you gotta do what you gotta do, pound out those taper pins and put a proper FSB with lug on it. And depending on the model, you may need to thread the muzzle (the last ones of these just had a target crown)Dang it.
Now you guys got me thinking again about my Colt AR HBAR sporter.
That DOESN'T have a bayonet lug.
Probably never use or need one.
But of course, I hate that it's 'neutered' without one.
Not a better example of running out of ammo.. and having to use the bayonet.
I would almost support painting the Bayonet grips white on that one
Yeah I will add, SMGs and MGs don't need bayonets..
Yeah that rail mount thing is overly expensive. Thankfully a lot of rifles have OEM ways to mount a bayonet, or surplus parts that can be purchased to mount bayonetsThanks OP, another expensive rabbit hole I've gone down now. Looks like Sig makes a rail mounted bayonet mount that is a little more financially practical than the one from Geissle. I know, shocker that Geissle didn't have lower prices than the other options right!?
I've got plenty of extra bayonets. Got any duct tape?Still looking for my bayonet for a rem model 700 in 300 win mag.
Precision rifles don’t need bayonets, because of your going to tote that thing in a combat situation, your going to have a carbine second rifle on your back…. And it will have a Bayonet in a scabbard.Still looking for my bayonet for a rem model 700 in 300 win mag.
Then there are these.You call that a bayonet? That's no bayonet...
THESE are bayonets!

Then there are these.
What I mean specifically, is anything that you use in a tactical role, that isn't a machine gun, smg, pistol, or precision bolt action.Everything needs a bayonet. Except those things that don’t. I do t think “everything “ means what you think it means.
Where there is a will, there is a way. The Turks took some old Mauser bayonets and adapted them to the M1 Garands they had.I took a Pattern 1907 bayonet and had my knife guy make a custom handle for it. Now it's a supper stabby, and very quick in hand short sword.

I have a second one I was thinking of turning into a sword cane, but now I'm thinking it may find a home on the end of my SBR...
A 17" bayonet at the end of the 11.5" barrel should get me a good 10" of steel poking out in front, even with the can on if I can figure out a way to mount it.
What makes the green grass grow?
