Well, after mulling it over, I ended up placing a successful bid on this bayonet, and hope to have it shortly. I am not sure just what it is. I made an inquiry to the seller as to where he had acquired this bayonet. His response was: "Item comes directly from a striker brigade member after deployment from Iraq. Alaska has a very large military presence , with several bases stationed throughout the state". What intrigues me is the provenance provided by the seller in having obtained it from a U.S Army soldier whom recently returned from Iraq with the bayonet. Now, that does not provide proof the soldier was issued the bayonet from military stores. However, in all likelihood he would have been issued a M9 so why buy his own (and what a odd one to get as well)? I will post some detailed pics after I receive the piece...
