Below you will find links to pages maintained by various collectors and dealers which contain some very useful information of interest to the collector.  I do not maintain any of these and am not responsible for their content or accuracy.  NEVER take anything you read for gospel just because it's on a web page or in a book.  ALWAYS try to confirm facts from several sources.  The following sources are ones that I've found useful and I think you will too.  Happy Surfing!

OLD RIFLES

This site is dedicated to {military} rifles, handguns and bayonets from the time period of 1850 to 1950. An attempt is being made to show all the major rifles, handguns and bayonets of this period for each of the major countries of the world. No attempt has been made to account for all the many variations of each gun or bayonet that occurred during each weapon's useful life.

POLISH BAYONET PAGE

Dedicated to foreign bayonet collectors, because this topic is unknown outside Poland. In many western catalogues, Polish bayonets are incorrectly identified. Even in Kiesling there are mistakes. It will be nice if these pages help collectors know Polish bayonets better.
