Ross bayonet fitting problems
Got a bayonet to go with my newly acquired Mk II 3* but it will not fit all the way in. There is a 1/8-inch or so gap At the muzzle and at the bayo lug. Nothing is in the bayo slot although the metal in there looks weird like the metal is separating. The barrel on the rifle is 28-inches. Not sure what is going on so any advice or comments would be greatly appreciated. Here on some photos. Thank you.
