Feuerwehr bayonet... - 03/26/2012 11:21 PM
Hi guys,
I acquired this at a gunshow over the weekend. I usually don't pick up dress pieces but this one was in exceptionally nice condition. The bayonet is without a maker but has a retailer that I'm not familiar with. Has anyone ever seen anything edged from Paul Gerstmann? I remember being told that a dress bayonet without a maker's mark indicated that the piece was a "factory second". True?
