vz. 24

[icecooler]

Hy!

Here you can see a german used vz. 24 bayonet. Interestingly it hasn't got german markings on the ricasso just czechoslovaks. Scabbard made by KOMO, bayonet made by CZS. I have some questions: Is this the original colour remain on the scabbard or not? I'm not 100% sure. Why this hasn't got german markings?

Thanks in advance.

One more question: What is the "R" marker under the "CZS" factory marker?

Germans didnt made any marking on similar bayonet, sometimes were only serialed or unit marked. The piece could be of export when no acceptance and year on tang between grips E lion date, the blueing on scabbard was remained only in hidden frog area.Is there any acceptance on scabbard frog? b.r.Andy

There are some markings on it: between the two grips: E3(lion)37, on the frog stud: KOMO, H(lion)27.
