Gr8Scout 0 Posted December 11, 2004 Report Share Posted December 11, 2004 (edited) I saw a couple of questions back in past postings about bayonet mounts. Here's one I cooked up in less than a half an hour. Needs an M4 bayo, but all I have on hand is the M7 shown. Edited December 11, 2004 by Gr8Scout Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KySoldier 2 Posted December 11, 2004 Report Share Posted December 11, 2004 Did you make the lug for it? ...that's pretty crafty. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chris410 0 Posted December 11, 2004 Report Share Posted December 11, 2004 Pretty sweet, need to come up with one that mounts ak bayonets. Did you just retrofit a ar-lug to fit? Like that BK&T too!!! Is that the campanion? I got the combat utility 7 and rescue dive tool. Theyre decent but the handles are a bit slippery. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gr8Scout 0 Posted December 11, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2004 I cut off the barrel band and sling attachment from an M1 Bayonet mount. These usually sell for about $10. I had one laying around. It's an excellent tight fit, but did not mar the barrel (I sanded the inside smooth). I need to drill and tap it for a set screw. A bit of expoxy would work instead. I spray painted it black after the photo. The Becker is the BK9, the 'combat bowie' The firearm and knife is my rabbit hunting package... the big becker sometimes needed to chop my way into a thicket to recover a downed rabbit. Camillus/Becker are trying hard to get a new, less slippery handle to market, using micarta, I think. The project was just for fun, after reading the posts about putting a mount on this excellent and cheap shotgun. I'm happy a couple of you approve! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chris410 0 Posted December 11, 2004 Report Share Posted December 11, 2004 (edited) M1 I should have known, I knew it looked famaliar. I got to come up with something now, I want to mount my Bulgarian ak bayonet, it has the ribbed black handle so it will match my saiga. (I know its ridiculous but I gotta have it that way) Those BK&T's are a great deal, certainly not a busse or randall but in the $40-60 range they are hard to beat and quite capable. A bit of sandpaper will give the handle a bit more stick but it looks like hell. Edited December 11, 2004 by chris410 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IndyArms 10,186 Posted December 12, 2004 Report Share Posted December 12, 2004 Definitely VERY COOL! Always cool to see a lil project work out with simple things you just happen to have handy... especially when it WORKS! And MAN... that DOES WORK!!! VERY COOL!!!

Gr8Scout 0 Posted December 14, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2004 Of course an AK bayo would just look better. But the mount is so damn easy the way I have it. What I am going to try is this (I buy-sell-trade-collect knives and work on some of them a bit): Modify an AK bayo to fit the M1 mount. Pretty busy right now, time is the one thing we all never have enough of, right? But when I get it together, I'll post a pic. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
