New goodie for old SP1

[mawkie]

Always wanted one of these but couldn't bring myself to pay the going rate for one (+$250). It's a KCB-70 (Knife/Cutter/Bayonet 1970) bayonet built in the Netherlands by NWM, under license from Eickhorn, for the Stoner 63 system (also fits the M-16). Got lucky last week and snagged an unissued example for the bargain price of $71.69 including shipping at a PA auction. One nasty bayonet! Wish I had a Stoner 63 to go with it! My 1974 vintage SP1 will have to do til then.
This Dutch site has a great write-up along with a slide show of the original leaflet.

A perfect compromise between the wood stock battles rifles of yesteryear and todays tricked out mall ninja rifles

Way cool. I have a few bayonets and hate paying big bucks for one.

I agree! Have always loved the look of the "first generation" assault rifles like the Armalites, Stoners, PE-57s, etc. Gene Stoner's early AR10s have always pulled my trigger. Should keep my eyes out for one of the modern Armalite AR10Bs with the brown colored Sudanese type furniture. Way more affordable than one of the originals!
