Title Bayonet for Gras rifle
Nationality French
Period 1876
Sold

This nice example comes with a scabbard (original factory blue), whose numbers match the hilt. 'Manufacture nationale de Chat. (Chatellerault) Juillet 1876' is engraved on the spine of the blade. There is some medium pitting on the leaf spring of the bayonet lock; otherwise, in excellent condition.
