Being a carbine build based on the movie Platoon, an M7 is the most appropriate for the photo.
I've taken stock of the bayonet supply here and I am short three bayonets for available lugs.
Since two of them are FuzzyGeff's I am not too worried about the lack.
It's also a warning about how easy it is to ease into having a collection... At one time an M7 bayonet was to me, the same thing as it was to the Army, a bayonet. Then I started checking to see who made them...
Turns out they've become collector's items. Imperial Cutlery made, Colt's marked, M7 bayonets are $99 each from Apex Gun Parts. $58 for an M8A1 scabbard.
Snagging a BOC or Conetta with a scabbard for $35 each seems a real deal anymore!
It also seems that, to save money, buying a new-made USMC bayonet is the better plan than vintage.
