As the title says, does anyone know or have any info apart from whats on the web regarding the initial prototype Pritchard made from the Frenchicon Gras bayonet, did he use the whole bayonet chopped and changed etc, or was it just the blade and scabbard.

Just interested in the initial design, (an original would be nice but probably a tad expensive ) I'd just like to try and fashion a grass bayonet if possible to fit a Webley .455 for a display.

Personally I can't see the point (excuse the pun) of a bayonet for a pistol, I've read a lot regarding trench raids etc, but I think its something that was made but never used and has slowly become folk law regarding the use along with the extended stock.....

I'm sure along with just the basic revolver, a club and or any bayonet at the time would be more effective......
