Good day gentleman, 

I just want to present my small collection of bayonets that fits the SMLE, or in may case on an Ishapore 2A1. 

pretty standard P1907 
three times an RFI Mk II
a nice Owen 
and a P1903 which doesnt fit.... :(

As you can see, iam missing a later model for the Ishi with a square handle. So if anybody have one he dont need... ;)

If you want more details or another picture of a specific one, just let me know.

im interested in knowing more of your 1903 - the scabbard particularly , is the tip metal and how much , the rare one has just a bit of metal tip showing , ive been looking for years - always fun to see if others have had success where i did not , 

nice assortment and well on your way , i once had a bunch of those and i agree you need the square pommel version to round things out , they are out there , should not be hard to find ,

The scabbard from the 1903 looks pretty much like the one from my Owen. I unfortunatly i just have a few low quality pictures.

i believe its a shortened P1907 version - as are most , there were not so many real P1903s that survived to get into collections , i only found one over the years and could not quite purchase it so mine is just like yours ,

Some more Pat. 1903s. Interestingly, the bottom two are converted 1888s, the last by Ishapore.

he!!o 'Waldschrat'. Nice beginner collection. You've more or less included the whole spectrum of the P1907 Genre.
This is MY rifle, there are many like, but this one... is MINE!
