All were finished in black oxide. The first 15,000 bayonets delivered under the contract were stamped \"LanCay\" (August 1\/'95). Shortly after, the decision to change the marking to \"Lan-Cay\" was made and executed (August 17\/'95), with all future production marked in this manner. Of those first 15,000 bayonets, just over one-half of them still retained the earlier hollow-ground blade edge, with the remainder of the second contract bearing the simplified \"angle-ground\" blade edge. Despite the earlier or later manufacturer marking, they all should have the \"M9\" and \"USA\" markings as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdopted in 1984 as a replacement for the M7 bayonet, these genuine U. S. Government issued M9 Bayonets were designed for the AR-15, M16 and M4. The muzzle ring fits over the tip of the barrel, and the handle of the bayonet has two level locking mechanisms to secure it firmly to the rifle lug. As opposed to other 1095 carbon steel options, the M9 features a maintenance-free 420 stainless steel blade far less prone to rust, with saw teeth milled into the spine. The textured thermoplastic nylon handle provides a great grip in all situations. The included scabbard has a snap closure strap and interfaces with the hole in the M9 blade to create a functional set of wire cutters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e7\" Blade with a Saw Tooth Top Edge\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDurable Polymer Scabbard with Quick-Release Clip \u0026amp; Wire Cutter \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fury28","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44932124344455,"sku":"sku-53307845837079","price":250.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/2627\/8535\/files\/rn-image_picker_lib_temp_7208e5cd-5696-48a6-96b2-45a1e5c41558.jpg?v=1781872091","url":"https:\/\/globalsurvivor.co\/products\/lan-cay-m9-bayonet-vintage-2nd-production-run-1995","provider":"Global Survivor ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
