An antique P1853 socket bayonet for use with the P1853 Enfiled rifled musket and Snider-Enfield rifles. Allthough This bayonet was designed by the British for use with their service arm, it saw heavy service in the American Civil war with both Union and Confederate forces. This bayonet lacks British Military markings, and is therefore possibly of commercial manufacture for sale with the many Enfield muskets sold in Africa. Interestingly, many P1853 bayonets used in the American Civil war also displayed no British markings.
The locking mechanism is fully functional and still locks in place.
The socket measures at around 19mm at the blade-side, and 20mm at is opening.
