What will they desperately think of next? What're 'ya gonna do? I guess that when your gun is empty, you can run up and stick all 'yer enemies. Sheesh. :lol:

They are several hundred years too late for anyone to be the first to put a bayonet on a pistol.

Ever see one of the "Apache" Revolvers? It not only had a knife blade, it also had a set of brass knuckles, and a seven shot pinfire revolver cylinder (usually with no barrel).

Ever see an Elgin Cutlas Pistol? A .44 caliber single-shot percussion muzzle-loader with a 16? cutlass blade bolted to the underside of the barrel, the Navy bought a few hundred to equip an expedition exploring in the South Pacific. The swabbies really liked them, but Elgin went belly-up before they returned with their glowing reports.

I've seen pistols with spring-loaded bayonets on them that date back to the 17th Century and before. On a single-shot front-stuffer, they made a little sense. On a semi-automatic repeating pistol, they are definitely "as useless as boobs on a footlocker."

Anybody wonder about the politics of someone who would "invent" somthing this dumb?

They have just turned all standard pistol rails into a "bayonette mount" and put all so-equipped pistols onto the AWB list...

Well, it's a cute little knife, isn't it? Better run out and buy one before the big O bans it! (Said facetiously, but I wouldn't put it past the gun-grabbers to use it to help push the AWB)

Ever seen an Elgin cutlass pistol? Same Idea, in CQB it just gives you one more option without shifting anything around. IMHO if I still need that gizzie after empting 16 from the pistol and two spare mags, it willl be to cut my own throat and save my opponant the trouble. But is they paint it black and call it tactical they should sell a bunch.

It is kind of funny. " I just blew ten 40 caliber expanding holes into you and that didn't stop you, so now I'm gonna jab you with the pocket knife on the end of my gun!" :mrgreen:
