Did Long Branch make no9 bayonets?

[Flying10uk]

Thank-you for bringing up Canadian Arsenals, Lee Enfield, which has reminded me of something. It was recently suggested to me that it is possible to have the Canadian Arsenals mark and the Long Branch mark on the same bayonet which I doubt. I think that someone is mistaking a Canadian acceptance mark (arrow within C) for a Canadian Arsenals (A within C) and if the marking is lightly struck this is understandable. Has anyone defiantly seen the Canadian Arsenal/Long Branch markings on the same bayonet, please, did it happen???

I would think that it is possible on separate component parts...the block and the latch parts for instance.

I have seen ONE SINGLE FTR'd Singer MFG No4MkI bayonet, and a MkI rear sight with mixed parts (Savage with EFD marked componants)

I did a study of 1950 LB rifles a few years ago and there was an overlap in bands and stock component markings and finish (Blueing/Phosphate). Presumably where they used up stocked NOS components from the war and converted over to new production.
