They are hard to find here and fetch around $170 when they come up.

Gees! Guy paid $40. Wants a Mauser sling for it. Any body got a really nice Nazi (so sick [nice Nazi]) sling they want to trade for it? I'm short slings for all mine.

Ran into a bunch of guys who fought in Malaya when I was in Rhodesia. Loved those Sterlings. Was issued a Uzi. Blew the top of my horses head off firing it from the hip at the Terrs. Mounted infantry do not cavalry make. Doug

The acid test (? or one that is as simple as a bloke without metallurgy facilities needs) to see whether it is the correct steel - and therefore a pretty good test of whether it is real - is to take the grips off and touch the blade part under the grips onto a grinding wheel in your darkened workshop, Nice white sparks and it's good, hard steel. Dull red and it's rubbish.

A Viners No5 bayonet with wood grips, 2 screws. Weighs 300grms with out the scabbard. Hope this is of help. Lester
