Hi
It's been a while since I posted. Since then I found another of these 90 degree back cut Colt M7 bayonets and I was able to buy it. It is virtually identical to the one I originally posted.
There are six differences in this Colt marked M7 and the Imperial/Colt M7.
1. It has a 90 degree back cut.
2. It has grips with the threaded bushing imbedded in grip instead of a loose nut.
3. It has a round hole in the tang instead of square one through which the "U" shaped retainer passes.
4. It has a star burst peen.
5. The ears on the release levers on the pommel are shaped differently and do not have the punch dot.
6. It does not have the two holes in the cross guard by the blade.
