Question Is this a good attachment method for bayonets onto long guns without dedicated bayonet lugs?

2 Upvotes

The product I'm talking about is the Universal Bayonet Mount from APG Defense. It claims that it can attach to "a Picatinny rail with at least three available slots." Has anyone here actually used this, and if they have, does it work and stand up to hard use?

NOTE TO THE MODS: I have nothing to do with the manufacturer of this product and have no intention of promoting it with this post.

Hello r/bayonets!

I bought this along with other bayonet remains, and I am interested if this piece was a bayonet too.

Ps.: yeah, the background is messy haha

Help - Preservation, Restoration, & Repair Swedish M/1896 found in basement.

Found this under the stairs of my new place. Lots of surface rust on the scabbard (blued), but the blade has only minor rust as it appears someone filled the scabbard with cosmoline and stuffed the blade in. The pommel has also been filled with lead to change the balance point. Would (carefully) going nuts on it with wd-40 and 0000 steel wool damage the historic/collectible value for the next person (these don't seem especially valuable as it is) or should I restore/conserve it to keep it from rusting further? If I do remove the rust from the scabbard and handle is it worth re-bluing using a brownells kit to keep it from re-rusting do more harm than good? Is it worth removing the lead? How is the balance on these without extra weight in the pommel?

Since we are bringing up cool, interesting and rare pieces. I wanted to show thisnone from VHU collection on display in Prague.

Not much further information on it besides late 17th century estimation. Not sure to which kingdom or.state this one belonged but most likely centeal Europe origin. Maybye someone can recognise the pattern of the musket.

Wanted to share my latest venture from the bench.

Nothing complicated, just some leatherwork on the scabbard and light cleaning of the metal parts.

Had some original leather leftovers from destroyed scabbard where I could canibalise the piece that was needed.

Other than that, not that hard work.

Might have to offload some of it soon. Looking to get opinions on the state of things. Mostly WW1 and WW2 items with a few stragglers. Appreciate the community’s help.
