Description


In 1749 the dragoon musket m/1738 with "three edged bayonets" were issued to "Westgöta Cavallerie Regemente" and "Bohusläns Dragonregemente". (Alm, 1953).
It was assumed that the bayonet was m/1747, but it was not.
This bayonet looks like m/1747 but is is shorter and the blade is wider.


This is a tentative designation, however very likley. Ony one bayonet has been examined.
