:rofl: :thup: Pretty good. I like the look of the Krag bayonet on my M1 actually. That was nice...

Thanks Jim
More "tongue in cheek" than serious but it does show what bayonets fit the Krag and therefore fit the 1903 and M1 (last bayonet not withstanding).

US Academy West Point used the Krag cadet bayonet on Krag, 03 and M1 until 1960s when the M14 was issued.
