Same as Your dates stamps are always different, is no other pcs of equipment that would be so overdated as this.The piece was reblued as part of reworking, so it was done later not in 1939.


Andy,

SS VZ-24 bayonet with accountability #1484 is not stamped on the crossguard or blade. I do not know where you came up with that. As I said before, you need to get your facts straight when the bayonets and rifles started to be reworked by the SS. I went through three SS VZ-24 bayonets with muzzle rings and all were dated 1939.
