What is m-14 bayonet?

The M-14 bayonet is a type of bayonet that was designed to be used with the M-14 rifle, which was adopted by the United States Armed Forces in the 1950s. The bayonet has a 7-inch blade made of high-carbon steel and a black, plastic handle. It also features a locking mechanism that allows it to be attached securely to the rifle's muzzle.

The M-14 bayonet was primarily used by the US Army and Marine Corps during the Vietnam War. It was used as a multi-purpose tool, including as a knife for cutting brush and vegetation, as a bayonet for close-quarters combat, and as a wire cutter.

Although the M-14 rifle was replaced by the M16, the M-14 bayonet remained in service and is still used by some units of the US Armed Forces today. It is also a popular collector's item among military enthusiasts and collectors.
