Or do you ship bayonets to the UK, I know your laws are equally as stupid as ours. GP is probably the best man to authenticate them so there you have it, It's a shame you can't send to the UK or I think I'd have one to replace my repro. There just isn't much reference material from that time.īelow are images of the two variants we are selling.
We were hoping to gain a true understanding of all the markings found on the bayonets, but that knowledge is being gained SLOWLY! We had these examined and consulted with the gent in the UK ( Graham Priest, author of "The Spirit of the Pike: British Socket Bayonets of the Twentieth Century") who appears to be the only person who has examined any of these and has taken the time to document these STEN bayonets. The STEN bayonets were pretty exciting as no real quantity of them has been available on the surplus collectors market. We purchased these when we bought all the STEN kits. When I get it, I'll add photos to the Sten pinned reference section.ĭavid for mentioning the original STEN bayonets that we have for sale at APEX Gun Parts. I felt I had to add one to my collection. There are 2 different manufacturer markings available, and they're either $325 or $345. They're not cheap, but I had to order one when I saw them. The prices noted here after the auction are considered unofficial and do not become official until after the 46th day.I noticed in Small Arms Review (SAR) Magazine that Apex Gun Parts has original Sten Mk II bayonets available.
