Serialed 07 Bayonets

[Bindi2]

As we've discussed numerous times...the bayonets were never matched at the factory but stamped as a control measure at unit level. It's actually a waste of time...completely. Note it states often. Means there was no directive, just a non standard practise.

Sorry Jim Lithgow stamped the Numbers on the bayonet. Each box of eight consecutive numbered rifles had eight bayonets numbered to the rifles. The MD and inventory number were added before issue.
