Pea Shooter Posted 27 February , 2020 Share Posted 27 February , 2020 When you see pictures of British troops, it looks like they have two bayonets. What is the second piece of equipment behind the Bayonet? Vaughn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnboy Posted 27 February , 2020 Share Posted 27 February , 2020 Can you post a picture of what you mean? If the bayonet is on the rifle it is probably the scabbard on the belt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pea Shooter Posted 27 February , 2020 Author Share Posted 27 February , 2020 no, it looks like two scabbards. Is it a wooden handle for a tool? Vaughn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
