Replica Bayonet for Mosin Nagant M1891/30 Rifle [S&T]

The S&T M1891 bayonet replica was designed as an accessory for the Mosin-Nagant rifle replica Réplica de rifle Mosin-Nagant M1891/30 - Madera auténtica [S&T]. The model is based on the historical Russian bayonet, combining a four-sided blade profile, a socket-style mounting system, and an overall length of 505 mm.

Design inspired by the M1891 bayonet

The model is based on the Russian M1891 bayonet developed for the Mosin rifle. It used a socket-type construction mounted directly around the muzzle area.

One of the most distinctive features of this design was its long, four-sided blade. The bayonet belonged to the thrusting type and differed clearly in form from knife bayonets with flat blades.

Historical examples also featured a characteristically shaped blade tip that could serve as an auxiliary screwdriver during rifle maintenance.

Socket-style mounting system

The M1891 bayonet used a socket fitted over the front section of the barrel. The mounting system worked with the elements located near the muzzle, while the bayonet was secured in position by a locking ring.

On the S&T replica, the socket is ~72 mm long and has an internal diameter of ~14.6 mm. The model was designed for the S&T Mosin-Nagant replica with product code Réplica de rifle Mosin-Nagant M1891/30 - Madera auténtica [S&T].

Historical context

The M1891 bayonet was introduced together with the Russian Mosin M1891/30 rifle. The rifle design was later developed into further variants, while the characteristic long socket bayonet remained closely associated with the Mosin family.

Rifles of this system were used by the Russian and later Soviet armed forces, including during both World Wars. As a result, the four-sided bayonet became one of the most recognizable accessories associated with this rifle design.
