Original correspondence
Please be advised personal correspondence from the original M-9 manufacturer is available on this website. Go to photoserver, scroll to the bottom of the page, and look under new photos. Here is evidence of a unique, untold part of the M-9 history, available only on "Quarterbore". Within aprox. 90 days of this correspondence, the Army established plans for an impact resistant, modular bayonet hilt, precisely as described in U.S. Patent 4,458,420. Personal correspondence was received by Davis in response to solicitation to license '420.
This correspondence is not to be confused with a second letter, received from the U.S. Army, about the same time. Both these letters taken together prove beyond any doubt that Davis was the first person to approach the original M-9 manufacturer, and the U.S. Army, with a "state-of-the-art", impact resistant, modular hilt.
