CLEAR was not clear ...

... It would seem , that one of the CLEAR Bayo M9 , the 1st version from 1995 , had received a defective latching mechanism during that manufacturing . This seems surprising , because they were made for certain demonstrations ... This is some photo of the " problem " . I said " problem " because 99% of my bayo's don't have this " curiosity " ...
It , does not appear on the versions 2 and 3. Only on the version 1.
I can understand that it is question of prototype , but the Latching Mechanism is a standard detail .... Strange .

Looks like a defective part. At the point in time that the clear bayonets were made LanCay was well into their manufacturing process. You're right, there's nothing prototype about this component part.

I think you should send it back to the person you bought it from and tell him to send you a different one

I will gladly take it of your hands my friend , no point in having a reject in your collection.

I agree with Lee. A first class collection such as yours should not have such a defective piece in it. You should send it to Lee ;-)
