Canadian Frog and P1888 Bayonet?

**marysdad** · 04-10-2011 01:10 AM

I picked up an interesting P1888 bayonet, in a Canadian icon

Pattern 1915 belt frog. I snagged it because the bayonet appeared to have escaped being overhauled multiple times, as have so many P1888 bayonets. Even the viewer's marks in the grip scales are still visible. I was hoping folks could help with the markings and fill in any historical information. During what period would this have been used: WW I, between the Wars, or as late as WW II?

Princess Louise Dragoon Guards, C Squadron?

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.
