Description
Belgium Model 1916/24 Mauser rifle with the muzzle ring bushed to 15.5mm from 17.5mm. Serial/Rack number 4947 to crossguard. This bayonet has been renumbered, presumably when converted to the M1924 from the M1916 model. Original serial number to the left side of the crossguard has been partially removed. (Reference WW 95, JN 18-2 and K #337)
