Thanks for posting OP. Snagged a few. 13 groove is now sold out.

 

I bought the older style...then decided I wanted the 13 groove date coded...woke up early and sold out. Should have just got it and cxled other order :/

Anyone have a 13 groove date coded they wanna sell PM me...or trade for the 12 groove plus $.

 

Good looking out! Just snagged one.

 

Anybody get emails this morning asking for a picture of your driver's license sent to them via email?

 

Anybody get emails this morning asking for a picture of your driver's license sent to them via email? Absolutely ridiculous.

Nothing yet. That’s strange

 

Didn’t have one of these particular design in the collection. Ordered one.😵‍💫
Thanks for the link OP 😉

 

From the link:

"Accompanied by a plastic scabbard adorned with a realistic wood grain pattern, this bayonet further reflects the attention to detail that has gone into its creation."

I'm trying to conceive a reason any military would ask for fake wood grain on plastic. Dress kit? Personally I like my material to be true to itself.

 

It is the thinking of a bygone era… Nothing more ,nothing less. That’s the way I see it.
It is a piece of history.😉

 

Just bought the 12 groove. I hope it fits. I bought one from an on-line surplus store several years ago that had the mount about 30° off-set for what the bayonet mount needed. I sent it back.

 

So when I ordered on Saturday and I got one of the emails. Later that evening I sent a picture of my PA drivers license (REAL ID), along with the address update card issued by Penn DOT after I sold my house in May of this year, and my PA carry license. Apparently that got a second email sent to me asking the for the same damn information as the first.

I get being asked once, but twice within 48hrs?
wtf is going on?!?

 

I don't know why that would be happening unless they discovered earlier fraud on your card for another purchase.

My sale went right through and I received shipping and tracking info this morning. You might want to contact your credit card company and start asking questions.

 

It happened to me because I had a different shipping versus billing address.

 

That usually throws up a lot of red flags these days except for flower and candy deliveries.

 

So what’s odd is that now that I’ve sold my house my shipping and billing address is now the same. The only place it is different is on my DL that was issued last year. Hence the state issued update card. Also between my bank and the card issuers fraud dept I normally get a text / phone call anytime there is a suspicious charge. That never happened for this purchase. Not sure what was going on but as aggravating as it is they did finally confirm the order and I have a tracking number. So that’s a win, can’t wait for the pig sticker to get here.

 

What a cluster f*ck… glad it’s finally making its way.👍🏻

 

Got it! Looks great after clean up

And it fits 😍

 

Very nice. I haven’t received mine yet, but I hope mine is in nice shape as well.

 

Looks great. Did you just use some bore cleaner on it? Mine will be here Friday

 

I used hot water and soap to get most of the thick grease and grime off, then I went back with a toothbrush and some Rem Oil. Then I used compressed air to get the crap out of the internals and cracks, then piled up super good.

 

I don't have photos yet, but mine being the $109 example does't look quite as nice. A lot of surface rust and some pitting one both sides of the blade. One side is worse than the other.

1.5mm of the tip was bent as though someone dropped it on concrete. I straightened it, and then used a fine checkering file to smooth it out. The edges were pitted too, but not badly. The checkering file took care of both edges too.

Lots of pitting on the mounting ring, topside. I can only imagine what the rifle must have looked like.

It cleaned up fair after a wire brush and some Red & Tacky gun oil. I'm going to go over it again. The mechanism works well and mounts up tight and releases fine.

No maker's mark, proofs, or date code on my example. I'd have paid $80-$90 for something in this condition, but I know they're drying up, so $109 wasn't outrageous.

I'll get a few photos up on Friday.

 

Mine is also the $109 I must have got lucky. I don't see any stamping on mine either.

Mine has some dings, but overall I think I just got lucky.

 

Got mine today, it’s not bad at all. A little elbow grease and it should be just fine.

 

Got mine today and they look like crap! Took one out of the bag and a chunk of rust fell out. Gonna need a lot of work to get them presentable.

It looks like we just need to finger cross for nice one. They just send out randomly.

 

Ordered two (on the right), missed the drop on the 13 grooves/recessed handles. The older straight handled one (bottom right) was in decent condition. The curved belly one (upper right) had a chipped tip, loose handle, and the ring/guard is bent (which I wonder how, seeing as the ring isn't weight-bearing and a thrust would transmit force to the lug in the handle base)
