Title L1A3 Nato bayonet
Nationality British
Period c 1965
Sold

This is the final development of the SLR bayonet for the British army in use until the introduction of the SA80 in the 1990s. It is marked clearly on the hilt L1A3. Nice example, with all its anodised finish and original black paintwork. Minor rust spotting to scabbard.

Excellent information, Chris, you've been making a big effort! I will spell it out more closely (I'm a historian!) and don't think Bezdek can add much more.
