Hi Bayonet collectors - This is a public service announcement. I have noticed not one, but two Australian Machete/Parachutist bayonets for sale in the USA - one on gunbroker auction and one an outright sale on ebay. Both are priced accordingly. According to IDS less then 3000 were made. I have never seen one in person, and have read there are a lot of fakes out there, but these look authentic??? ------------- "Corruptissima re publica plurimae leges" - Tacitus The more corrupt the state, the more it legislates |

I am always amazed at what Terry has. It's probably easier just to ask what he doesn't have
