Brown Bess is the popular name of the infantry musket which served the British military from around 1722 until the end of the Napoleonic Wars.

 

Often, a bayonet was used on these muskets for close combat, which were comparable in length to short-swords.  This authentic replica of the Brown Bess bayonet is made of steel. The sheath included in the delivery is made of leather and has a fabric strap.

 

A beautiful item for every collection and an indispensable accessory for re-enactors.

It is possible that you (or an experienced locksmith) have to modify the locking mechanism in order to install this bayonet on your musket/rifle.
