NOTE TO THE COLLECTORS: Most of the 1909 Bayonets and rifles survived the grounding of the crest and are very easy to find them with the Coat of arms intact but that is not the case with the 1891 Bayonets and infantry rifles. The aluminum grip scales were part of an effort to lighten the bayonet. The grip metal is an alloy of aluminum, with 6 percent copper. While the Mauser rifles were manufactured by Ludwig Loewe & Co, it was decided that the bayonet would be supplied elsewhere. After much negotiation Argentina, under the advice of Colonel Riccheri, signed with Weyersberg, Kirschbaum & Co.

This is a very hard to improve, very attractive 1891 MODELO ARGENTINO Bayonet with MATCHING Scabbard and CRISP INTACT CREST (hard to find) that would make very FINE addition to your collection!!!
