You are correct. I just picked up a 1987 phrobis/buck 188> today. From the tip of the muzzle to the bayonet lug it is 8 inches. This leaves three inches of blade under my barrel. Why do m4's have. Bayonet lug if it doesn't match up? Is there a fix for this other then buying a 20" barrel? Is there a boot on ring adapter to mount on my barrel to take up the slack. If not I may have a spike's tactical and a bushmaster xm15 1/9 twist for sale. The scabbard is a phrobis (marked with a dolphin) just under the sharpening stone. It did not have a pouch and it has a yellow warning printed on the scabbard warning about the cutting line. Is this the correct scabbard? Lastly is the buck/phrobis as good as quality of the phrobis? I know it sYs the 188 was made for commercial use. Thanks for all your help
