Colt bayo for M16A1

**Bizio** · 03-01-2013 04:33 AM

Hello Collectors,

what do you think of this Colt bayo for M16 icon

A1 rifle ?
Dealers here state it's original of '70s but I am not convinced at all since the scabbard is made of plastic and not of fiber glass.
Are maybe just commercial and not US GI bayos ?

These bayos are on sale to be matched with M16 A1 rifles
Colt M16 A1

Thank you.

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.

Thanks, that's what I thought.
I own an US GI M7 bayo for M16 icon

rifles and scabbard looks like completely different.

This MAY be one of those made by Imperial for Colt. Check Bill Humes page at Humes M7_02

It looks like one of the Imperial Colts to me, especially with the crinkle finish scabbard.

I had sent and email to Frank Trzaska and he confirmed it is a commercial bayonet, no worth the money the dealer is asking.
